It's Better to Be Healthy and Wealthy than Poor and Sick is a curious blend of satire and tragedy, really encapsulating the chaos of post-communist Europe. The film follows two women whose lives intersect with Robert, an emigrant who drifts in and out of their lives. The pacing feels intentionally erratic, much like the world they inhabit, where the aftermath of the Velvet Revolution creates a surreal backdrop. The performances are raw, each actress brings a unique energy that highlights the clash between hope and despair. The practical effects, though modest, enhance the gritty realism of the setting. It's the interplay of humor and pathos that gives this film its distinctive flavor. A fascinating piece for those interested in the socio-political landscape of the time.
