The Magic Voice of a Rebel

Olga Sommerová / Czech Republic / 2014 / 85 min.


synopsis

A portrait of a talented woman whose life was strongly influenced by the history of communist Czechoslovakia. Marta Kubišová is a symbol of the Velvet Revolution, a singer, and a mother. Th is commemorative collage brings together the singer’s personal confessions, his torical events and songs. From the blending together of her personal and professional lives, a complex parable emerges of a woman and the time.
