Who wants to kill Jessie

Kdo chce zabit Jessii, Cehoslovacia, 1966, 80 min.
regia: Vaclav Vorlicek
VO ceha / subtitrari in engleza

Filmul reprezinta o fantezie cu umor sec bazata pe un concept foarte atractiv pentru public: o femeie creeaza o formula prin care elimina elementele neplacute din vise. Ceea ce nu realizeaza insa, este ca aceste elemente incep sa se manifeste in viata reala. Atunci cand femeia utilizeaza formula asupra sotului ei, ale carui vise includ un personaj de Banda Desenata pe nume Jessie – o blonda frumoasa, voluptoasa si geniala-, cei doi barbati care o urmaresc, un supererou si un cowboy, invadeaza realitatea. Daune grave incep sa se produca mai intai in cladirea de apartamente, apoi se extind asupra intregului oras, Praga. Si atunci cand tribunalul decide ca sotul trebuie sa preia raspunderea asupra acestor fapte pentru ca sunt la urma urmelor visele lui, totul se transforma in haos.

ENGLISH VERSION

A summer at the museum, but not any museum: one absolutely special for Romanian audiences: the Comic Strip Museum. No more, no less than four months dedicated to Romanian comics, with exhibition opening events for contemporary artists, book launches, debates and conferences, creation workshops, film screenings and guests from abroad.
The Comic Strip Museum is hosted by the National Museum of Contemporary Art and is a pilot project envisioned and initiated by Alexandru Ciubotariu and Asociatia Bedefililor din Romania and organised by the Romanian Cultural Institute with the help of members of the EUNIC in Romania cluster. The museum includes a permanent exhibition of original drawing boards, four temporary exhibitions, a multimedia library, a series of conferences about images parallel with the ninth art, creation workshops with artists and live drawing sessions, debates between authors and editors about comic strips and their future in Romania, book launches and film screenings. Over the course of the museum’s four months, a Museum Almanac will be created in real time, with comic strips, interviews with artists invited to the museum, testimonials and conclusions, as well as Nichita Stanescu’s distinctive volume with comic strip by Sandu Florea (limited edition).

Who wants to kill Jessie

A deadpan comedy-fantasy based around a simple high concept: a woman creates a formula that can remove elements from dreams, but what she doesn’t realise is that these elements then manifest themselves in the real world. When she uses it on her husband, whose dreams include the characters from a comic strip featuring Jessie, a beautiful, blond, voluptuous girl (who is also a scientific genius), the two men chasing her, a superhero and a cowboy, also invade reality, and cause serious damage to the apartment building and later the city of Prague. And when the courts decide the husband should be liable – they are, after all, his dreams – more chaos ensue.
