Gestures of the absent bodies: "Sedmikrásky" (Daisies) by Věra Chytilová as an example of experimenting with corporealness in the Czechoslovakian New Wave Cinema

Abstracts

EN

This article deals with the issue of ‘absent corporealness’, as shown in the movie Sedmikrásky (Daisies) by Věra Chytilová. The director deconstructs the concept of femme (and fille) fatale, showing femininity that releases itself from the control of male phantasms by breaking the taboos and balancing on edge of what is acceptable or not. Corporealness and the world shown in the movie are being deconstructed, but also presented as a destructive factor. Heroines transgress from a world that they perceive to be ‘corrupt’ and meaningless, a world, where a gesture has lost its original meaning.
