Jitka Rudolfová : 2013
Delight
Young film editor Milena is in love with Vladimír but their shaky relationship is mainly based on texting. "Are you someplace?" reads one of the text messages the characters keep sending each other, and the tone of the brief and rather vague message precisely describes the relationship void in which Milena finds herself. She and the friends and co-workers around her constantly talk yet they seem to lack the capacity to listen. Instead, their minds are eagerly occupied with the incessant search for satisfaction, perfection, and originality – but the struggle is unsuccessful and no one has time to stop and consider the reasons why. The characters clamour for attention although they themselves seem incapable of offering support to others. The meandering search for a satisfactory relationship and inner peace may thus take a little longer than Milena had envisaged. Jitka Rudolfová's razor-sharp psychological drama, her second feature, received its international premiere in competition in the East of the West section at Karlovy Vary International Film Festival 2014.
