Such Is Life (Czech: Takový je život) is a 1930 Czech drama film directed by Carl Junghans [de] and starring Vera Baranovskaya, Theodor Pištěk and Máňa Ženíšková [cs].
The German director Carl Junghans was unable to secure funding in his native country, but eventually found an investor in Theodor Pištěk and the movie was made in Czechoslovakia.
The movie follows story of a washerwoman, her lazy husband and her daughter.
[1][2] For many years the film was considered lost until 1959 when the film was discovered, reconstructed by director Elmar Klos, and new music was created by Zdeněk Liška.
The restored version was first shown at Il Cinema Ritrovato festival in Bologna on 29 June 2016.
