About Věra Lukášová
Vera is eleven years old and after the death of her parents she lives with her grandmother. She doesn't understand her at all, doesn't recognize her as her beloved son and is terrified of the genes of her daughter-in-law, who was "just" a saleswoman. Vera prefers to escape into her own world, where she doesn't hear her grandmother's lamentations, ponders good and evil, and her balls become Spanish nobles...
Directed by E. F. Burian, Věra Lukášová leans on a strong ensemble — Jiřina Stránská, Rudolf Hrušínský, Lola Skrbková — 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 drama titles of 1939.
