Daisies warning: not for your regular lover of CHC

Hello and welcome to Episode One of our second chapter—Forbidden Films. In this chapter we discuss movies from across space and time that have, at some point, been governmentally banned. We think Vera Chytilova’s anarchistic film, Daisies, is a particularly explosive way to dive in. Daisies is not meant for the closed minded; in fact, we request that you go into the viewing experience with a high tolerance for ambiguity and having left all of your expectations about what cinema should be behind. Join us in an attempt to break down what is now labeled as a feminist landmark of the Czech New Wave as we discuss how to approach the experimental, allusions to major feminist works, and the reconciliation of the dualisms embedded in this work.
