The Magical Duvet

The Magical Duvet

The great musical comedy by F. A. Brabec V perine is the first Czech film made entirely in 3D. This stimulating comedy, in true and thorough 3D, presents a whole new computer-made world concealed in a quilt, where a large part of the film is taking place. The film V perine is a musical comedy made in the high-spirited style of Mamma Mia. In a relaxed world, where everybody used to dance rock'n'roll and the streets were full of pink Cadillacs, good and bad dreams hidden in our quilts take form. The musical adventure culminates in the magical world of dreams. Twenty two original songs accompany you throughout V perine. The films score and most songs were composed by René Rypar from the band Support Lesbiens, several exceptional guests contributed with their music. Two pieces were composed especially for the film by the band Kabát, and a melody written exclusively for In The Quilt by Karel Svoboda will be heard, several years after his death. The lyrics were put together by Writer Miroslav Adamec and Frantisek Moravec. The casting is quite grandiose: the bold and possibly slightly goofy Lucie Bila sings and dances seemingly at fingers reach, and youll experience Karel Roden as never seen before. The strong cast further includes Jirí Mádl, Anna Stropnická, Eliska Balzerová, newly holder of a Czech Lion award, Bolek Polívka, Nikol Moravcová, Arnost Goldflam, Nina Divísková. The children Amelie Pokorná and Matej Prevrátil complete the cast. The film V perine, which will surely get you in the right summertime mood, was shot in the city od Písek, in the South of Bohemia.
