Open in HeraeAbout the film
Daisies (Czech: Sedmikrásky) is a 1966 Czechoslovak satirical comedy film, co-written and directed by Věra Chytilová. Widely regarded as a milestone of the Czechoslovak New Wave, the film follows two young women, both named Marie (played by Jitka Cerhová and Ivana Karbanová), as they engage in a series of bizarre, rebellious and anarchic pranks. Originally conceived as a satire of bourgeois decadence, the film critiques societal norms and those who rigidly adhere to rules. Chytilová described the film as "a necrologue about a negative way of life." Daisies also subverts traditional gender stereotypes, redefining its heroines on their own terms. The film is noted for its critique of Communism, censorship, and patriarchy, and it was banned from theaters and export in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic.

How to watch it together from different places
Each of you opens Daisies on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
