Bitter past that the Czech people shoulder, on the theme of "Prague Spring" incident in 1968, depicting the youth of shine while hidden in the inner sorrow "Prague!". Unfolds the streets of the beautiful Prague to stage, the whereabouts of the love of the high school girl Tereza ...? From this time on April 29, this work retro with a fresh stylish Czech design that is scheduled to be published in the Q-AX Cinema, is the editor-in-chief of the Czech Republic General information magazine "CUKR [Tsukkuru]", in Shibuya I will look to Kajiwara Hatsuutsu, who is teaching a Czech, I was talking about the culture of the country of their stay and the Czech Republic.
Movie "Prague!" Is here
Q-AX Cinema is here
- Please tell us about your impressions that saw the "Prague!".
Movie itself is fun and bright, I feel that the youth of a page. Heartwarming to watch the place is impressive, I liked it very much. Such, dance scene-studded movie musical tailoring is, I think that rare in the Czech Republic.
When referred to in the movie of live-action, to about 10 years ago, as has become the topic of "Kolya", it has been introduced many drama of humanism specific work. "Prague!" Filip wrench supervision of, but is a famous director in the Czech Republic, also different with his style of until now. How to take, such as the retro film is also set with a handmade feeling, the atmosphere, such as American Graffiti, I guess're eyeing the effect of issuing a dare old-fashioned atmosphere. It is a rather fresh, and feel that it can be said that the new type of work. And Czech of American pop, it is also fun cute fashion beginning with the girls the Tereza of the protagonist. In fact, it seems to have gained popularity in the Czech Republic, had been for quite a while, around the town posters affixed.
- Even in this movie "Prague Spring" (※) it has been painted. Major theme of the'll try one of the Czech movie.
※ "Prague Spring" = during the spring and summer of 1968, the reform movement that took place in Czechoslovakia. Society by the regime under liberalization production that has been forced to, by the Warsaw Pact military intervention that was holding a sense of crisis in Czechoslovakia for freedom, subject to oppression.
"Prague Spring" for the Czech people, I think that it is a very painful sad history. "Still not been such as to history" in the more vivid recent memory say, modern young people, parents and grandfather, I think I would have heard the story of the time from the grandmother. Because I was a big news in the world it often becomes a movie theme, but the wants to seriously draw its history is, I'm actually a point of view that was conscious of Western Europe, such as France and the United Kingdom.
Among them, the Czech coach, in the history which is said to be harsh, actually if it has lived to do, it is often drawn from the perspective of either have been laughing. Captures the political themes in the cynical eyes, we dare think of that expression in humorous it can be said that the tendency of the film to be produced in the Czech Republic.
- "! Prague" But, I have been drawn invasion of Warsaw Pact troops by the Soviet Union.
In the "Prague!", But there is a scene in which the father of Tereza is listening to the radio, because the Czech Republic of the broadcast would have been checked the contents to the Communist Party, but it is are you intercept the broadcast of free content from the United States . Also in the general public, we take it to see that holding a sense of discomfort to the communist system. Then, "all of a sudden one day" for the Czech people, is why the invasion of Prague Spring begins. Among such creeping political unrest, find the fun, the Czech young people to enjoying the youth are drawn vividly is, I think that it is the charm of this work. Even in any situation, people Czech find the desire to live in every day. Now that is full of dark news in Japan, that the Japanese see the "Prague!", Or would not be meaningful to.
From the movie "Prague!"
- And it can be seen from the movie "Czech-ness"?
In the scene in which young men and women to a party in retreat, look at what is the handmade fancy decorations, I thought "this kind of thing I Czech people Speaking to!". I Czechs, really handmade practical things. I I would make on their own until the home and car (laughs). When you make something, it's always a serious attempt to Kakaro how much time.
Then, on the train to go to school in Prague Tereza from the suburbs, the scenery seems the Czech Republic also because has been watched the journey to the conductor's. Even now, full of these human touch, it will have interaction with the old people and people, such as Japan.
And in the city of landscape, it is seen Czech architecture. In the early 20th century in the Czech Republic, it Italy, the architectural design that was influenced by French Cubism was popular. Intentionally or tilted at an angle, such as to highlight the corner, not in the other buildings, also I'm still a lot now.
- Anime Speaking of the Czech Republic but is famous, the culture that Czech young people is paying attention?
But also seen Japanese animation such as Pokemon, such as the character that gave birth Zdenek Miler "Kuruteku", national popularity of the character, you do not have changed from the old days. From the era of communism, and at the same time sticking to the artisan not changed Czechs of temperament to make the work, that the fact that whether or not to bring the money needed to grow up young artists has become the challenge listen to the story. Perhaps because of, you might say that the new work is not easily out into the world.
The city of Prague is just I think is similar to the scale of about Harajuku from Shibuya, but I feel that it has changed a lot in about the last 10 years. Although not as kind of shop Many Shibuya, or can the casino, or have entered the department store of foreign .... I feel that the gap between the rich and the poor has been spread. Is in the young people, it seems that people think you want out of the country if there is a chance has become many. "Prague!" The girls that appear in is very fashionable, actually'm lot (laughs). But, that woman is beautiful is it is certainly. "The French woman is beautiful makeup, Czech women are beautiful remains of waking up" is the more there is a metaphor.
- The opportunity to Kajiwara's was interested in the Czech Republic?
In fact, it was a junior high school student, I'm a chance that came to like the Czech tennis player named Ivan Lendl. Then, the person who invented the contact lens or know that it is the Czechs, such as Freud of composer Antonin Dvorak and psychologist, went one after another continue to discover the people and things surrounding the Czech Republic, it deepened interest. Select the Czech major in college, after graduation began a part-time job in the Czech Republic of the airline that was in Japan at that time. Then, the I had worked in the publishing company to wear the editing technology, it was launched a site loaded with information in Czech, and its spread is the network of the Czech ties .... It means that Serve the book only on the theme of the Czech Republic, it was launched to "CUKR [Tsukkuru]" in March 2005.
Once you put out about No. 4 I began to think that good, but take more me at the store, there is an echo from the unexpectedly reader's, it had passed more than a year if you notice. Now it has become a large part of the issue of "CUKR [Tsukkuru]" is life.
- Do you now want to work on what?
In the last few years, I feel that a growing number of people interested in the Czech Republic. In fact, by Toyota in about three years ago has created a factory in the Czech Republic, then you have an increasing number of Japanese living in the Czech Republic, some people like the original country and the Czech Republic of the anime that the Czech Republic. By that we have been spreading the magazine, it seems to me to feel the Kokorozuyo is, it has also become my support.
The Czech Republic has a point of view and culture that unlike Japan. Or boring day-to-day when you are in Japan, for example, when there was a nasty, touching the Czech Republic, I am happy if I get a or inspired or refresh. To that end, I would like to deliver the "CUKR [Tsukkuru]" to as many as possible of the region in the future, enjoying a different world. In addition, such as the Czech educational materials, I want to get on with the production of the Czech language and culture clearly convey publication.
For a while, it feels like themselves in the Czech Republic in the public and private both (laughs).
