The Firemen's Ball (1967)

Directed by Miloš Forman

“A colorful comedy, in which people dance, steal and extinguish the fire.”

Comedy · 1h 13m

The firemen of a provincial Czechoslovakian town throw a ball in honor of the old chief's retirement. There will be music and dancing, a beauty pageant and a raffle. The whole town will be in attendance. However, the proceedings are dogged by difficulty at every step. Workplace injuries, stolen prizes, a shortage of pretty girls... and fire.
