this is more than a movie

Hella disturbing. The images arent that scarry or horrific. Its the substance of the message that gives so much to think about.

Musel jsem vidět víc než jednou, než jsem pochopil, co tím mělo být řečeno...Čepek mistrovsky zahrál

I just watched the whole thing. It's best if you have some sense of the story of Faust before watching this. It is a fascinating, creative film, though.
