Plots(1)

A famous film story about the indestructibility and everlastingness of art. It is not a mere coincidence that exactly this topic is repeated so many times in Czech animation. Pojar's story of a harlequin who is survived by his art is the first one to develop this motif. (official distributor synopsis)
