"September Night"

Japanese: 《九月の夜》 - くがつのよる
"September Night"

...In the 1950s, film directors from FAMU came to the forefront. Voyteč Jasny's September Night (1957) kicked off the "New Wave" of Czech cinema (and in 1963 Jasny's Judgement by Cats, which won a special prize at the Cannes Film Festival, drew the world's attention to Czechoslovakian cinema). In the 1960s, promising young filmmakers such as Béla Chytilová (Daisies, 1966), Jan Němec (Diamonds in the Night, 1964), Miloš Forman (Blonde Love, 1965), Jirž Mencel (Watched Train, 1966), and Jaromír Jireš (The Scream, 1963) enjoyed the "Prague Spring," but were silenced by the Soviet invasion in the summer of 1968. Among those who fled the country was Milos Forman, who went on to have success in Hollywood (Amadeus, 1984, etc.).
