The Snowdrop Festival
This movie is based on texts of Bohumil Hrabal, world-known Czech prosaic. It's a story (in a form of a mosaic of short episodes and pictures) about the sadness and happiness of inhabitants of Kersko (Kersko is a small woody area full of cottages and roods). These people are both simple and sensitive, they have their own pleasures (e.g. Leli is a collector of cheap, but inutile things) and the greatest delight of all of them is a hunting. Crude poetics of amateur hunting is screened by dreamy pictures of this area. Menzel mixes sentimental lyricism and rough (but not vulgar!) humor and the outcome is the never-ending landscape of continuous life in the proximate nearness of nature. The performances of actors are brilliant. Both Rudolf Hrusinsky as a Franz and Jaromír Hanzlik as a Leli have nonrecurring charm bottomed on a pain and inebriation. Only the music is not perfect: Jiri Sust usually assembled his film music from his older works and in this movie there is many quotations.

Pan Tau
Pan Tau is a kind gentleman who wears an elegant suit and is always there when families need him. Although it radiates from a completely different time and not a word is spoken, but everything is there and responds to problems in its own way. There can be magic appearing seemingly randomly among families across all social strata in any way possible by tapping the bowler hat on his head for magical perspective shifts. By doing this, it seems to be ignoring all the laws of physics.
