Daisies (Sedmikrásky)
Daisies 
In this savagely funny and wickedly inventive rampage against work, war, men and materialism, two girls - Marie 1 and Marie 2 - decide that the world has gone bad and so should they.

The insatiable duo hit the streets of Prague looking for men to feed them and they turn every opportunity for mischief into an outrageous, slapstick assault on all things status quo.

Daisies was banned in Czechoslovakia for its 'depiction of food wastage' (the banquet food fight is legendary) and its audacious director Vera Chytilová was barred for six years on the grounds that she lacked 'a positive attitude to socialism'.
