Black Peter / Cerny Petr Remastered DVDSynopsisMiloš Forman, a versatile talent in film and television, made his mark with his first semi-documentary film Konkurs, composed of two parts: a talent hunt for a new singer at the Semafor theater and a story about Kmoch's Kolín brass band. Forman's connection with Kolín continued in his feature debut 'Černý Petr' (Black Peter), set in the uniquely charming town. The film, made in 1963 from an unpublished story by Jaroslav Papoušek, portrays the early days of an apprentice in a self-service shop. Its authenticity is enhanced by casting mainly non-actors, including Jan Vostrčil, a bandleader from Kmoch's band, and Ladislav Jakim in the lead role. Vladimir Pucholt's memorable performance as a mason's apprentice became iconic, with his distinctive 'ahoj' resonating among the youth. The film's unusual truthfulness captivated both domestic and international audiences, bringing acclaim and recognition to its creator.
