SWITCH.

Miloš Forman experienced life-changing events and was able to take advantage of them and turn them into a narrative of an individual‛s never-ending fight for freedom against institutions. Jakub Hejna and Helena Třeštíková's film does a remarkable job of connecting the archives and Forman's words and this clear account of the life of one of the world's greatest filmmakers should be embraced by anyone who has any interest in the complex relationship between fortune, misfortune, politics and the creative arts. - Jake Watt Read Jake's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-forman-vs-forman-the-life-of-a-creative-rebel
