Daisies

1966, Movie, 1h 16min

If the entire world is bad, why shouldn’t we be? Adopting this insolent attitude as their guiding philosophy, a pair of hedonistic young women (Ivana Karbanová and Jitka Cerhová), both named Marie, embark on a gleefully debauched odyssey of gluttony, giddy destruction, and antipatriarchal resistance, in which nothing is safe from their nihilistic pursuit of pleasure. But what happens when the fun is over? Matching her anarchic message with an equally radical aesthetic, director Věra Chytilová, with the close collaboration of cinematographer Jaroslav Kučera, unleashes an optical storm of fluctuating film stocks, kaleidoscopic montages, cartoonish stop-motion cutouts, and surreal costumes designed by Ester Krumbachová, who also cowrote the script. The result is DAISIES, the most defiant provocation of the Czechoslovak New Wave, an exuberant call to rebellion aimed squarely at those who uphold authoritarian oppression in any form.

Frequently asked questions

What is Daisies about? Toggle content

Daisies is a surrealist comedy-drama film that follows the adventures of two teenage girls, Marie I and Marie II, who embark on a series of destructive pranks in a communist regime. The film's visuals are spectacular, with the use of avant-garde techniques and a neo-dadaist style. The girls' antics range from silly to subversive, as they challenge societal norms and expectations. The film's climax features a dramatic and chaotic feast, which culminates in the girls' transformation and a powerful statement about the futility of rebellion. Despite being banned by the communist regime, Daisies is now considered a classic of feminist cinema.
