Fits like a glove


The Hand (1965)

Directed by Jiri Trnka this is an animated short film. A potter gets oppressed by a gloved hand as he tries to live a normal life.

Clearly this is about living under oppressive regimes and the film does a good job of exploring this idea through the slightly strange world it depicts. Well worth a watch if a little on the long side this is an interesting effort. The animation style is pretty cool and it's always nice to see some stop motion.

4/5
