Car Men Trailers

Car Men is a collaboration between the renowned choreographer Jíri Kylían and filmmaker Boris Paval Conen. Based on the opera 'CARMEN' by Georges Bizet they shot a hilarious and poetic short film in the destroyed landscape of a Czech brown coal mine. The actors in this film are older dancers from Kylían's troupe (around 50 years old) and the main prop is a 'TATRA 87', a famous car from 1937.

A black and white silent movie where you don't miss the words nor the colors. This is a short movie worth watching. Based on George Bizet opera Carmen, four characters living in a junkyard of sorts, swirl in a whirlwind of emotions, while constructing the most bizarre vehicle you can imagine.The acting is superb and the pace of the movie changes from slow to ultra-high speed to grip your attention. Once you are looking a the screen you don't want to move your face away from the TV.This is a serious movie, even though it can be hilarious at times.Highly recommended.
