Whisper
The feature debut of director David Ondříček, son of the cinematographer Miroslav Ondříček, defined the first post-revolutionary generation fascinated by electronic music, new gender and sexual fluidity, non-aggressive drugs and the aesthetics of the 1970s skiing jackets. The film, as naive as its 16-year-old heroine coming to Prague from a small town, but fabulously stylish, expressed all longing for a fairytale life “like in the West” – a life like a never-ending design party, where no one works and no one pays the rent. A laughing sun spurting positive energy, sweat or tears, just like on a pill, represented the ecstasy of newness and blurred club colours. The crabbedness of Prague Five typeface was smoothened by a cosmically round effect typical of the second half of the 1990s.
