Czech Films 2006-2007 2007 / Marta a Berta 26 / Czech Republic 2006
In her Bachelor degree project, Jitka Rudolfová hints at ambitions to film “Daisies for the year 2006”. One day in the life of two girlfriends, full of coincidences and chaos – a critical double portrait of the passive and restless part of her generation, people who don’t know that they’re the result of their own decision-making.
Two friends meet up in a coffee bar. Marta, who’s studying acting, is thinking mainly about what went on during rehearsal, while Berta is chewing over her relationship with Libor. From the coffee bar, the girls wander into McDonalds and then head for the theatre club. From retrospectives, snippets of conversation and shots of the girls meandering around Prague, comes a lively narrative which has a documentary feel about it. The film presents a critical double portrait of the passive and restless part of her generation, people who don’t know that they’re the result of their own decision-making…
