## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

The Games of Angels meets Un Chien Andalou. Shadow puppets drift through a prisoner’s doodle of purgatory where barbed wire flowers and staircases go nowhere. The soundtrack is a rusted music box playing in reverse, carried by Borowczyk’s own line drawings left to slither off the page.

**Mood tags**: dread, surreal
