Trailer for Faust by Jan Svankmajer. Faust is solicited by the devils assistants at a Prague subway exit, he agrees to sell his soul directly to Mephistopheles in exchange for 24 pleasure-filled years.
The bargain is sealed, but Faust must first be turne into an actor, then into a puppet A surrealist fantasy featuring surprising and imaginative clay animation
combined with live-action and grotesque life-size marionettes. A modern myth offering illusions within llusions that illustrate the ordinary corruption, miseries and vanities of the human animal.
I remember this one! I enjoyed it.

@foathkent, it's from the first act of Gounod's opera Faust. Highly recommend the Sutherland/Corelli recording.
