Surrealism was arguably the most important artistic movement of the 20th century in Slovakia as it challenged both cultural and political establishments. Stefan Uher's 'The Miraculous Virgin', an exquisite, surreal, mystery drama set in the art scene of the 1960's became one of Slovak cinema's most admired and controversial works. Centring on the 'dream' figure of Anabella (Knife in the Water's Jolanta Umecka) who casts her spell on a group of young artists, the film, through its embracing of fantasy and imagination, becomes a provocation to those only concerned with the material world.
