His films banned for decades in Czechoslovakia under the Communists, Slovak filmmaker Dusan Hanák uses his latest documentary to exact a sweet revenge. Paper Heads' powerful assemblage of contemporary interviews and archival footage exposes the vicious and tawdry mechanisms of the repressive system that was so swiftly and unexpectedly swept aside in the Velvet Revolution of 1989. The film confronts with clarity and a mordant, contained humor the complex emotional and political legacy of Communism. If it pays tribute to the now ostensibly liberated Czech and Slovak peoples, it also pays tribute to the devastating and revealing art of cinema. With short: Wind of Changes (Phil Mulloy, England, 1996), an irreverent animation based on recorded interviews with the composer and musician Alex Balanescu. (15 mins)-Amy Holberg
