The Cassandra Cat: Reverie Cineclub: Fairytales from around the World
Released in 1963, Vojtěch Jasný's sumptuous, surreal satire is one of the most lavish and uninhibited films of the entire Czechoslovak New Wave. A travelling circus and its magical feline mascot arrive in a provincial Czech town, and expose the virtues, vices and desires of its unruly inhabitants. Part modern fairy tale, part colourful political metaphor, THE CASSANDRA CAT (also known as WHEN THE CAT COMES) is a unique, glorious comic drama. While this screening is curated for family audiences, it is open to all. Please note all children must be accompanied by a parent or carer. Our age recommendation for this film is 7+ REVERIE CINECLUB is a passion project created by NFTS Curation student, Nathasha Orlando Kappler. Its aim is to showcase spellbinding films to young audiences that are diverse in style, language, and form. This November, we are excited to launch REVERIE CINECLUB’s first film season, FAIRYTALES FROM AROUND THE WORLD, which will feature three World Cinema classics from directors Vojtěch Jasný, Lotte Reiniger, and Aleksandr Ptushko. From hypnotic silent era animation, to awe-inspiring fantasy adventures, this film season hopes to enchant people of all ages with the hidden gems of cinema history.
