Saturday, February 25, 2012, 6:00 p.m.

Dir. Jan Svankmajer. 2005, 123 mins.

With Pavel Liska, Jan Tríska, Anna Geislerová, and Jaroslav Dusek. This unsettling horror film plunges us into the world of an insane asylum that is experimenting with two different approaches: one with absolute freedom, one with absolute tyranny. Through intense live-action puppetry and animation, it frighteningly asks who are the true lunatics—the patients in the asylum or those who run it.

Free with Museum admission.
