"Has’ sense of surrealism create some of the most visually striking cinema of the 20th Century."—David Paul Hellings, SFFWorld
Defying classification, this surreal Polish masterpiece revolves around a young man (Jan Nowicki) who visits his father in a phantasmagoric sanatorium beyond time and space. This adaptation of Bruno Schulz’s story collection is immersed in the past Jewish culture and was awarded the Jury Prize in 1973 at the Cannes Film Festival.
