Surreal, Gothic fairy-tale from the Czech New Wave movement of film-making. The story opens with Valerie just starting puberty. At the same time her earrings are stolen by Eagle who may (or may not) be her brother. A procession comes to town and with it The Weasel, who also may be Valerie's father. One thing is for sure, he is a vampire. Her grandmother disappears, or becomes a vampire, or turns into a long-lost cousin. People come and go, turn into vampires, die and return to life. They all seem to be after Valerie but her innocence protects her.
Alternate Titles: Valerie A Týden Divu
Available: Netflix, Amazon
