| A toy gun, thankfully, in Winter Flies |
Olmo Omerzu's
Winter Flies is a slight Czech road film of some charm and intelligence. Two pubescent males steal an Audi and proceed to tour the hinterland. Their journey is told in flashback after the inevitable intervention of the authorities. Omerzu displays a keen visual sense and moral acumen. The film never lapses into sentimentality or social pathology, though it contains strains of both. Omerzu's restraint, taste and talent mark him as a director to watch.
