Summary:
Maybe the New Wave's most anarchic entry, Vĕra Chytilov's absurdist farce follows the misadventures of two brash young women. Believing the world to be spoiled, they embark on a series of pranks in which nothing, food, clothes, men, war, is taken seriously. Daisies is an aesthetically and politically adventurous film that's widely considered one of the great works of feminist cinema.
