Skritek Summary
Director: Tomas Vorel
A Czech family's lives are turned upside down when they pull up stakes and head for the big city in this comedy without dialogue from writer and director Tomas_Vorel. A father (Bolek_Polivka) moves his family from the country into the city, where he lands a job at a slaughterhouse. His wife (Eva_Holubova) gets work at a grocery store, though she would prefer to spend more time with her husband, who seems to have developed a keen interest in a buxom blonde (Barbora_Munzarova) who works at the abattoir. As the parents deal with their problems, their teenage son (Tomas_Vorel_Jr.), a skateboarding anarchist who shuns meat, devotes his spare time to vandalizing the butchering plant, while his sister (Anicka_Marhoulova) struggles to keep up with her schoolwork. As everyone tries to adapt to their new surroundings, a pixie with a vicious sense of humor makes their lives all the more unpredictable. Skritek received its North American premiere at the 2005 Vancouver International Film Festival. Mark Deming, Rovi
