Audition
Directed by Miloš Forman
Produced by Filmové studio Barrandov
A light-hearted documentary anthology capturing the youthful energy and minor conflicts surrounding musical competition and performance anxiety in the 1960s.
Two closely related episodes. Youths make problems for two local orchestras about to compete nationally, and in a talent competition a young girl gets stage fright, while another lies to her boss to compete.
