The Portrait of Irma Geisslová, Who Died Sad (2024)

Irma Geisslová was a Czech poet and prose writer who lived in the late 19th and early 20th century. The director of the film and its direct participants enter into an imaginary dialogue with this talented author of intimate poetry, now forgotten by literary history. The result is a portrait of a personality composed of private confessions of affection for her work.
