If you loved El diario de Leonardo, try El castillo de Otranto
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Jan Švankmajer, and they both carry the surreal mood tag, and they sit in Animation territory. If that's the register that drew you to El diario de Leonardo, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El castillo de Otranto is
Eraserhead if stop-motion were the only tool. A faux documentary crew follows an obsessive amateur scholar who believes the first Gothic novel was set in his backyard, not Italy. The usual Švankmajer grotesqueries ensue.
