Jak se peče štěstí

About This Movie

Jak se peče štěstí stands out with its quirky premise and an engaging blend of family and fantasy. The narrative revolves around Princess Valerie, whose spoiled nature finally catches up to her when she offends the devil's grandmother. The loss of her voice leads to a chaotic situation where her lady-in-waiting takes the reins, creating a fascinating dynamic. The pacing can be a bit uneven, but it adds to the whimsical atmosphere. The practical effects, especially in how they visualize the magic rose and Valerie’s plight, are charming in their own right. Performances lean into the comedic with a touch of drama, making it a unique watch for collectors interested in Eastern European cinema from the era.
