Auditon / Talent Competition (UK-import)
Konkurs is Milos Forman's debut film and launched what became known internationally as the Czech New Wave. Although made as two separate 'featurettes', the style and themes were very similar and they were released as one film. Konkurs is important as the first work of a world-renowned director because it clearly shows the beginnings of the style and pre-occupations prominent in many of Forman's subsequently acclaimed films including Loves of a Blonde, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Amadeus.
