Synopsis:

Marking the death in April 2018 of its director Miloš Forman, this comedy was his final film made in Czechoslovakia and is a hugely entertaining film that is dryly funny and highly satirical.

"A socio-political satire that thrums with warmth and spontaneity, yet so enraged Communist authorities it was banned."

"The Party, the People, and the flames that won't be extinguished."
