The Valley of the Bees (Údolí včel)
A film by František Vláčil
Czechoslovakia, 1967
Blu-ray Special Edition
“Vláčil was, with just a handful of films to prove it, the Czech New Wave's formalist, post-expressionist wrecking ball, their Welles, their Parajanov” Village Voice |
|
Set in a vividly recreated 13th-century Europe, Vláčil’s visionary medieval epic chronicles the tale of a young boy forced to join the Order of the Teutonic Knights.
A raw and haunting moral fable that is just as powerful and compelling as his more famous work, Marketa Lazarová.
Our region-free Blu-ray is presented from a new HD transfer from original materials held by the Czech National Film Archive.

“Easily one of the most enjoyable Eastern Bloc films of the 1960s... There is a place for it among today’s rediscovered classics” Jonathan Owen |

The first ever Czechoslovak cult film musical, The Hop-Pickers was a sensation on its release, and its popularity has since endured for generations of Czech viewers.
Channelling the energy of the swinging ’60s with a distinctly Czech twist on the big-screen musical, The Hop-Pickers vibrantly blends music, dance, and audacious satire.
