Grade: B-

Country: Czech Republic

Director: Svankmajer

Review

trippy film about a couple who are infertile. one day the man chops down a tree and carves the stump into the shape of a baby. the woman thinks it’s her baby and they take care of it as if it were a real child. after a fake pregnancy the stump turns into a living stump-baby that has an insatiable appetite. weird shit with some fun stop-motion animation. funny at times. not sure what the point is. maybe you shouldn’t mess with nature or something. a major motif in the film is food which we see a lot of and is the driving plot device because the “baby” can’t get enough of it.
