Seven seemingly unconnected fairy tales - glued together only by folklore, mood, color and light - make up this Czech collection of visual poetry. The original piece of literature, written by Karel Jaromír Erben in 1853, contained twelve tales.

This film is the most visually stunning and well structured anthology I have seen and all of the 7 stories are great fairy tales from the Czech Republic that I found very interesting and breathtaking this is a great film to watch late at night on a big screen. My two favorite stories that have really stuck with me are The Golden Spinning Wheel and The Waterman!
