Intimate Lighting
1965. Czechoslovakia. Directed by Ivan Passer. Written by Passer, Jaroslav Papousek, Vaclav Sasek. With Zonek Bazusek, Karel Blazek, Vera Kresadlova, Jaroslav Streda. Two friends meet again after several years and reconnect through their shared passion for music and a night of drinking. This extraordinary portrait is as personal as a home movie and as penetrating as an X-ray. Every gesture and musical cue is intimate and effortlessly laden with history and meaning; every movement and action reveals the details of provincial living and the heartache of diminished expectations and broken dreams. In Czech; English subtitles. 71 min.
