About Milan Kundera: From the Joke to Insignificance
The brilliant Czech writer Milan Kundera has not given an interview in thirty years; nor does he appear in public. How did he become a legendary author? What is so unique about his books?
Directed by Miloslav Šmídmajer, Milan Kundera: From the Joke to Insignificance leans on a strong ensemble — Lukáš Hlavica, Leonard Hädler Stirský, Milan Uhde — 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 documentary titles of 2021.
