My Queen Karo

Holland

The trials and travails of living in a communal squat in Amsterdam in the 70's. Once "free love" came up against ordinary human jealousy the mirror of ecstatic bliss broke into shards.

The main character here was a ten year old girl...her dad was a committed "revolutionary" and mom was in a quandary on how to balance all the interests in their loft/dump. Much of this was painful to watch and frankly I preferred the comedic approach used for the same topic in Together but it was undeniably well done once the director learned how to use a tripod.
