About this event
Vojtěch Jasný’s sumptuous, surreal satire is one of the most visually inventive and uninhibited films of the Czechoslovak New Wave. A travelling circus and its magical feline mascot arrive in a provincial Czech town, unleashing mayhem as they expose the virtues, vices and desires of its unruly inhabitants.Part modern fairy tale, part colourful political metaphor, The Cassandra Cat (also known as When the Cat Comes ) is a unique, glorious comic fantasy. Cast: Jan Werich, Emília Vášáryová, Vlastimil Brodský, Jiří Sovák Please arrive promptly - we do not show adverts.
