If you loved The Flat, try The Garden

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Jan Švankmajer, and they both carry the foreign gem, surreal mood tags. If that's the register that drew you to The Flat, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Garden is

Švankmajer here asks: what if Buñuel made a community-theater production? A man visits friends with a disquieting garden fence made of human beings. Surrealism ensues, but it might leave one pining for the Czech master's superior stop-motion work.
