Démanty noci (DIAMANTEN DER NACHT)
In SOUSTO, towards the end of the Second World War, three prisoners attempt to escape from a concentration camp transport whilst stopping at a railway station. One of them manages to steal a loaf of bread … For his feature film debut, DÉMANTY NOCI, Němec chooses a similar subject: two young men manage to escape from a death train, but are pursued by a mob of old men armed with shotguns. A fascinating visualisation of the state of mind of persecuted, exhausted people from a subjectively experienced perspective. (hp)
