Product Description:

A radical change from other films of the Czech New Wave, this 1967 comedy focused on middle age as it approaches the film's characters. Set during the turn of the century, CAPRICIOUS SUMMER camps out with a group of vacationers who feel they are rapidly aging. Things get worse--and slightly chaotic-- when a magician/tight rope walker (played by director Jiri Menzel) joins the group, wearing his pink tights and toting along his young blonde assistant.
