“Atmospheric. Original. Authentic.”
Paste Magazine

“One of the most idiosyncratic and haunting undiscovered scores in the annals of European cinematic history.”
Finders Keepers

Drowning audiences in beauty, Karel Kachyňa submerges a classic into a kaleidoscopic blue fantasia of whimsy and wonder as a mermaid falls in love with the prince she rescues from the sea. Featuring the soft psychedelia of Zdeněk Liška’s electronic score, this underwater dreamscape is a pearl from the deep, cut from the same cloth as VALERIE AND HER WEEK OF WONDERS.
