ZAHRADA / THE
GARDEN
Slovakia, France 1995
DIRECTOR: Martin Sulik, 95 MIN
The young teacher Jakub is at odds with his father – he’s
also having his midlife-crisis. He retreats to the solitude of a garden,
where he hopes to escape from his passionate, but obsessive lover Tereza.
For him, the garden becomes a magical place where he realizes much about
himself and his life. In several “chapters” with symbolical
and allegorical subjects, he meets strange people who disturb his idyll
and make him contemplative. It is here that he meets “wonder-working”
Helena, who becomes his one true love. In Germany, Zahrada was
successfully shown on the art house-circuit.
