Alice

Young Alice watches as the stuffed rabbit in her living room smashes itself out of a display case and disappears into the garden. She follows and, after drinking a magic potion, enters a nightmarish and dark world where nothing quite makes sense. For his first feature after two decades of inspiring shorts, Czech auteur Jan Švankmajer starts with Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland and then makes things much, much stranger. An extraordinary film, it’s quite unlike anything you’ll have ever seen.
