Day of Joy
Deň radosti

Director(s): Dušan HanákCS22 min.1972
Accessibilitynot suitable for minors under 12 years of age

On June 12, 1971, in Zákamenné, artist Alex Mlynárčik organized the celebration Day of Joys – “If All the Trains of the World...” in honor of the old train Gondkulák and its final journey on the Orava forest railway. The event brought together young artists from the unofficial scene and their friends, railway workers, and local residents, accompanied by spontaneous artistic actions, musical and dance improvisations. Hanák does not simply document the event but selects fragments of it, complementing them with interviews, staged shots, and diverse found footage, creating a rich collage based on free associations and sound–image counterpoint.
