Description
Something Different / O necem jinem DVD
Synopsis
Věra Chytilová's feature debut explores the contrasting destinies of two women: one lives for her family, while the other is dedicated to competitive sports. The film, starring gymnast Eva Bosáková and giving the fictional story a documentary feel, portrays Eva's years of sacrificing her personal life to achieve top athletic performance, with hopes of compensating for it later. Conversely, Věra, who has focused on her family and household, is discontented due to a lack of self-fulfillment. Both women, like the heroine in Chytilová's Ceiling, question the meaning of life. However, just as they might realize their dreams of "something different," they voluntarily return to their previous lifestyles, beginning to sense that it is there they truly belong.
