🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a dramatic tale that relies on the stark contrast between the protagonist's grim profession and his pure affection. It explores the weight of social conventions through the expressive visual language of silent cinema.

What lingers after viewing is the haunting atmosphere of old Prague and a meditation on the cost of defying one's ordained fate. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Rudolf Měšťák
