Fireman's Ball
Sep 23 - Sep 24, 2008
(Miloš Forman, Czechoslovakia, 1967, 35mm, 71 min)
New 35mm print!
Miloš Forman’s final Czech film is his funniest and most savage. A satire on petty bureaucracy, the movie chronicles a provincial firemen’s ball that goes horribly awry. When it was first released, 40,000 Czech firemen resigned in protest over its unflattering depiction of their profession.
