Disc Three :Extras
The extra features on Disc Three give a broader view of Jan Švankmajer’s work, showing early puppet film work, excerpts from a project undertaken in the years he was not making his own films, as well as documentaries and interviews. The 54-page booklet is also invaluable in presenting an overview of the director’s work, with detailed examination of each of the individual short films and documentaries.
English subtitles are present where required – often in films that have a narrator – and they are optional. Extra features, documentaries and interviews are also all fully subtitled.
