About It Was the First of May
A young man is waiting on a park bench for his beloved to arrive. She meets a seductive old man in the window of a goldsmith's shop who gives her the jewelry she admired in the window. The young man sees his lover's relationship with the old man intensifying and enters an almost irreparable crisis.
Directed by Thea Červenková, It Was the First of May leans on a strong ensemble — Svatopluk Innemann, Eva Levínská, Ludmila Innemannová — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1919.
