AFS Lates: 'Daisies' in 35mm + Free Member Monday

Chic floral headpieces, paisley print bikinis, gluttonous dinner parties – the world has gone “bad”, and now Marie I and II are going to go “bad as well”. From groundbreaking Czech New Wave director, Vera Chytilová comes DAISIES – a gleefully batty, psychedelic rebellion set in a surreal utopia where young women liberate themselves from the conservative conventions of polite society. Banned upon its release, DAISIES now stands as a free-spirited, anarchic feminist classic and ode to girlhood in all its revelry.
