If you like Czech movies as me, you know, that a lot of Czech movies are comedies, dramatic historical movies from World War II or fairy tales. In the cause of Vaterland, this movie is really out of this trends. Majestic and thrilling story is situated to unknown age and place of action. Some mystical moments paints secret activities of "Kostroun-hunting", which is some ancient hunt ritual (fantasy part of movie). These rituals are known only to a small number of citizens and to main characters (Richard, Karel, Willmer)- members of an old Czech aristocratic family. All actions underline the mysterious music, art of actors and adventurous camera. Really, Vaterland is a jewel of Czech cinematography. Don't miss a dramatic end of tale !! Enjoy it
