About O štěstí a kráse
A fairy tale about Princess Marion, the laundress Madeleine, and the magic apples. Who would have thought that a princess could be dissatisfied with being a princess and wonder how good her life would be as a laundress? Well, she tried it, because the laundress was quite happy to exchange the castle laundry for the royal hall.
Directed by Libuše Koutná, O štěstí a kráse leans on a strong ensemble — Markéta Fišerová, Libuše Havelková, Pavel Trávníček — 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 family titles of 1986.
