PRIVATE CENTURY

Jan Šikl's remarkable 8-part "film cycle" Private Century is a unique series of films which tells the stories of ordinary people caught in the wheels of history. Each film is edited entirely from amateur family home movies and narrated in the first person. The cycle of eight 52-minute-long films follows average people going about spontaneous everyday lives. They grow up, fall in love, get married, go on vacation; experience lives familiar to all. This immediacy is Private Century's genius.
