A free-form and darkly surreal adaptation of Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, Pavel Jurá ek's film aIso channels Lewis CarrolI and Franz Kafka to create one of CzechoIsovak cinema's most unique and deeply disturbing works.
A man becomes Iost on a country road and finds himself in an alternative, nightmare worId that mirrors (then) modern-day Czechoslovakia. NeedIess to say the film was not warmIy received by the authorities, and like his earlier surrealist masterwork Josef Kilián (1963), was promptly 'banned forever'.
Jurá ek, who had earIier co-written V ra Chytilová's Daisies, Jind ich PoIák's pioneering lkarie XB 1 and KareI Zeman's A Jester's TaIe, never made another fiIm - but his legacy is one of the most profound, invigorating and important in all Czech cinema.
This edition also contains a new 4K restoration presentation of Pavel Jurácek and Jan Schmidt s Josef Kilián.
