Reality and fantasy are well combined in this charming Czech children's film about the adventures of two adorable young brothers. Left to amuse themselves when their class outing is canceled, the boys explore their city, encountering the true excitement that underlies the mundane surface. Their adventures include painting with a brush that colors reality, freeing enchanted jazz musicians, and a museum trip via roller skates accompanied by a talking dog. Though this is a fine entertainment for children, the surreal visions of the city plus the whimsical satire of the work-a-day world entertains on an adult level. In the U. S., this was released in 1967 as DO YOU KEEP A LION AT HOME?
