If you loved Otesánek (El pequeño Otik), try Fausto
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, unhinged mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Otesánek (El pequeño Otik), the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Fausto is
Eraserhead without subtlety. A man finds a map that leads him to a bizarre theater, where he's conscripted into playing Faust. Švankmajer's signature grotesqueries overwhelm any deeper reading of the ur-text.
