Episode 381: Dita Saxova (1968)

Czechtember 2018 continues with a look at Antonin Moskalyk’s Dita Saxova. Released in 1968, the film was adapted by Arnost Lustig and based on his novel. The film is the story of our titular Dita Saxova, a survivor of Nazi death camps who carries with her survivor’s guilt. She moves from one relationship to another without seeming to have a care in the world, though this ultimately doesn’t seem to be the case. Chris Stachiw joins Mike as guest co-host for this episode.
