Jiri Barta - Golem

[nothingtruc]

I am french.

I love this... "Thing".

Poetry and genius are the two master words of this short film...

And this is it too for all Art of Mister Barta, of course !

[opieprz]

teatralne przedstawienie, plastyczności i przekaz bardzo wyraźny, fajne zestawienie.

proustian moment artistically expressed. it was a great experience.

Debería haberlo comentado mucho antes. Golem, la animación de Jiri Barta (Praga, 1948- ) es como la promesa incumplida. Barta era un premiado director, pero después del fin de Checoslovaquia comunista, fue incapaz de producir algo por unos 15 años. En los años 90's se afanó por financiar su largometraje llamado El Golem, pero sólo logró terminar un breve piloto en 1996 (que se puede ver en youtube).

Lo que vemos sorprende. Pues se trata de un golem-ciudad. Es Praga y sus historias.

[kayway9]

[tomwildun]

wow. this video gives me feelings that he is trying to send do us.. it is amazing

[jeffdeanable]

This film is great.

[tvoreczech]

I'd love the film to be finished. But the producers are afraid of giving money for that, because they don't believe the film will be profitable. ...It's sad

[burdenoftrust]

wonderful

[StievAkrat]

Not sure if I could see the whole film without drowning in tears!

This is fantastic.

[serrianjatan]

one of the most interesting trailers ive ever seen. i really would like this film to be finished

[kweej]

[sylonka]

reminds me of Jan Svankmajer so much!

[Aped991]

That was by far the most amazing thing i ever saw in my life......:0

[psynno1]

Magical. Never seen anything like this...

[babsiileinchen]

AMAZING ! prob gonna give me nightmares though ^_^

[EnemyCombatant74]

for some reason, I am reminded of Batman comics when I watch this video. I remember a specific issue, and somewhat of a storyline, but nothing tangible. I'll look into it.

In the meantime, magnificent job whoever did it, has done, with it. Thank you for your efforts, and to whoever made it available here, thanks to you also!

[EnemyCombatant74]

apparently, I am also reminded of "overtness" and heavy "christian symbolism" also come to mind when allowing the video to plat through, of course, I am only at #{%) but am thinking I may have seen enough already...we shall soon see....

OUTWARD CHANGE BEGINS WITHIN

[ZZLe4Ni]

[Matrix803]

2:37 xD

[sentpope]

awesome!

[genesisplan]

Amazing...

[MOJOMANSON1964]

BRILLIANT!

[ugerWadi]

This all is satanic work. The Jewish rabbis animate a dead body with magical incantation.

This is all evil.

[DeathmenRa]

There is no Satan only Zuul! lol

Stop taking life so seriously. xD

[arakano]

what the hell man? Im a Christian and I see creativity in this. Nothing evil about this! of course, with the Avant Garde in many things, what is one opinion over another? right?

[ZZLe4Ni]

It's those kinds of Christians that give you guys a bad name, associating everything they don't understand with the devil!

[arakano]

Seems to me like this kinda christian doesn't like very much. But idk. I like this and I admire alot of things. There is alot of art out there. For example, natural art, there is a fish that looks like it has the face of a man. Is this fish satanic? highly doubtful

[jeannevdb]

the earliest story of golems date to early Judaism. Adam was created as a golem when his dust was "kneaded into a shapeless hunk". Like Adam, all golems are created from clay.

[Ochsenburg]

For the treasure chest you need a key :)

[jeannevdb]

A pity rhat the film was never finished! I think it is great that Gustav Meyrink's book was made into a movie. Gustav Meyrink always fascinated me... I have all his books...

[TheSchizoKing]

What's the story behind this anyway? Or is that left to the viewer's imagination?

[damiongringe]

I assume its based on the old Jewish folklegend of the Golem.

[blitzcomp]

NICE ANIMATION!!! VERY UNIQUE!!! but then I wonder what the story's gonna be once this is finish

[Svejk777]

Bravo, krasnej snimek nasi kulturi a perfektne sestrihane tricki. Long live ISRAEL

[fadgadgets]

beautiful

[valleus]

Beautifully dark and poetic

[KevinBrownsvideos]

Looks Awesome! I have the compilation Labryinth of Darkness,but I haven't seen much else of his...yet. Him and Svankmajer have such creative minds!

[him6661]

the sound work is as beautiful as the imagery... simply a work of art, any ideas of it's progress? i hope it gets finished some day

[HistoricThirdWard]

Very cool...

[LockedPig]

when it would be finished?? i want it *__*

[bioavi]

Jiri Barta need about 2000000 euro for finishing it. He just want sponsor or qualified producer

[LockedPig]

omg!!! genius like Barta can't found a sponsor? what a shame for sponsors like those -__-

[vsupfilm]

he has bad luck with production

[bioavi]

Jiri Barta is working now on 90min animated film "Na Pudě"(on the Garret),Golem is sleeping

[lars3939]

Puda=attic

[jabbaju]

jesus this is amazing

[OGMillwood]

Phenomenal. If Jiri finishes this he might just have created something that can top his own masterpiece, The Pied Piper Of Hamelin.

Cheers for sharing! :)

[itchyweasel62]

the film is about the golem of prague

[Jafuet]

Jiří Barta is genius

[BeefTurkey]

This looks awesome! Too bad it's not finished yet...

[danzajicek]
