    Wolf's Hole

    Vera Chytilova 1986 Czech Republic Feature color 92min Czech DCP
    Vera CHYTILOVA's subversive take on teen-horror/sci-fi genre assembles a gaggle of bratty adolescents for a mysterious skiing retreat at a snowbound cabin where they find themselves plunged into a sadistic social experiment. Wolf’s Hole is both a gonzo genre joyride and a blistering allegory for the psychic violence wrought by authoritarian oppression. CHYTILOVA enlivens the proceedings with her typical stylistic verve, using a vertiginous arsenal of zooms, zip-pans, and handheld camerawork to evoke her young characters’ disorientation, and setting it all to a suitably eerie score by popular Czech musician and composer Michael KOCAB.

    Vera CHYTILOVA, known as "the first lady of Czech cinema" and "the most avant-garde female director in Eastern Europe." She also plays an important role in the Czech New Wave movement. Her style is both controversial and diverse, but most of her films attempt to analyze various issues in the patriarchal society from a feminist perspective.
