Czechoslovakia
1959, 16 min

Section: Tribute to Břetislav Pojar
Year: 2007

A masterful parable about the indestructibility of art and also the goodness in man. Using expressive puppets created by Zdeněk Seydl, Pojar develops a poetic drama about a fragile harlequin and a menacing lion, simmering in the scorching haze of a desert oasis. The film won the Grand Prix in Annecy in 1960.
