About Cyprián a bezhlavý prapradědeček
Young knight Cyprian of Višně is long overdue for marriage, yet he refuses to even consider it. However, his cook Kunhuta cares deeply about his future, so she invites one bride after another to the castle. But Cyprian is friends with the castle ghosts—the headless knight, mischievous Cecilka, and the White Lady—and they willingly help him get rid of all the marriage-minded women. One day, their haunting scares Veronika, Kunhuta's niece, to death, but Cyprian suddenly becomes angry...
Directed by Vlasta Janečková, Cyprián a bezhlavý prapradědeček leans on a strong ensemble — Lukáš Vaculík, Bořivoj Navrátil, Naďa Konvalinková — 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 fantasy titles of 1997.
