Before 1968 there were a number of films in the "Czech New Wave" that were critical of authoritarianism. One of the most entertaining is "Az Prijde Kocour" (Cassandra Cat) which is available elsewhere on YouTube. The film won the Cannes Grand Jury Prize in 1963.

Great!

I'd say it's autobiographical by the looks of things. And though it's quite clever I really don't see how the czech government missed the symbolism...

Used this for part of my dissertation. It's basically about the regime in Czechoslovakia at the time... ‘denunciation of Soviet control over the arts and media’ There is some academic reference to if if anyone's interested the Harvard citation is (Pilling 1997:40).

@Terminchiator I don't think its against religion in anyway. Several of his films were banned by the communists for having religiousness

@boudeca it can be against communism because he make vases for living and for himself and the hand try to let him do a nondescript work, however a job is a job, i think it definitively is against a fake ideal like nationalism, racism, money divinity, religion, i think that the "making of an hand" means doing something not logic, tasteless, narrowminded, end, of course, patriotic considering it's your nation (hand) that makes you do that
i feel into in that long-nosed guy

this can refer to fascism or mafia

@Terminchiator
it refers to any totalitarian regime. Given that Trnka made this in communist Czechoslovakia I recon it is addressed to Communists...

Add this puppet to the communist body count .. a tribute to all of those that died the quiet deaths, the suicides, the supposed suicides .. and the death of the mind during those oppressing years! Did you guys know that Jiri Trnka was also an amazing illustrator?! I dug out an old childhood book called 'Favourite Tales from Grimm and Anderson' from Galley Press ..with the most insane illustrations by Trnka.. he was a man of many talents!
