U.S. PREMIERE This exquisitely crafted surreal fairy tale for adults by renowned Czech director Juraj Jakubisko takes place in a small village lost in the mountains, somewhere at the end of the world, and offers the fateful story of two sinful lovers in which the prophecy of Nostradamus is fulfilled. A bitter parable of mankind at the turn of the millennium, filled with dark human passions which from time immemorial have moved the world and doomed it to extinction. A fine example of why Jakubisko is considered a master of Czech cinema.
