CASFFA: Diamonds of the Night
Watch Trailer
Démanty noci
Presenting an expressively gritty and fearfully frenzied tale of human survival, Diamonds of the Night kicks off from the opening shots at break-neck speed, covering the footsteps of two prisoners who flee from a train headed to a concentration camp. Centring on the precarious survival of these two teenage boys who trek through war torn villages and nearby forests, Diamonds of the Night, with its raw intensity, irresistibly draws its viewers into an unforgettable experience, fifty-nine years after its release.
It is hard to argue Diamonds of the Night’s enduring place in Czechoslovakian Cinema. This harrowing war film only reaffirms its power in this 4K restoration courtesy of the National Film Archive in Prague.
