Inspired by Lewis Carroll's story, Svankmajer creates a darker spell, opening with the warning "Now you will see a film for children. Perhaps." Out of young Alice's toys and things, Svankmajer, the master of animation, summons the wonderful and terrifying inhabitants of her rabbit hole dreams.
Dir. Jan Svankmajer Czechoslovakia 1988 1h 26m
