Aimless Walk

Bezucelná procházka

Alexander Hackenschmied | Czechoslovakia | 1930 | 8' |

| IFFR 2026

A man strolls through Prague, headed for the outskirts. Upon reaching the Libeň peninsula – his doppelgänger emerges. The man’s soul? It stays in the idyllic landscape while the man returns to town. A key work of the 1930s avant-garde.

– Olaf Möller
