La trama - The plot

Karel (Jan Hartl) e sua moglie Bozena (Veronika Zilkova) sono molto giù per il fatto di non riuscire ad avere figli. Karel, per un gesto di simpatica dolcezza, porta alla moglie una radice di legno che ha la forma di un neonato ma Bozena prende sul serio la cosa ed inizia a trattare il ciocco di legno come un vero infante, inscenando una gravidanza per poi poter giustificare la presenza del "bambino". Karel teme per l'equilibrio mentale della moglie ma quando arriva il momento del finto parto, il pezzo di legno prende vita pur sempre rimanendo un pezzo di legno. La "madre" lo chiama Otik. Il piccolo Otik presto si rivela un essere voracissimo e cannibale. La strana situazione passa quasi del tutto inosservata tranne che alla giovane figlia dei vicini di casa, Alzbetka (Kristina Adamacovà) che inizia a insospettirsi e scopre come la situazione di Otik sia speculare alla fiaba di Otesánek, che narra di una sorta di orco di legno (da eXXagon's reXtricted).

Little Otik (Czech: Otesánek), also known as or Greedy Guts, is a 2000 Czech film by Jan Švankmajer and Eva Švankmajerová. Based on the folktale "Otesánek" by K J Erben, the film is a comedic live action, stop motion-animated feature film set mainly in an apartment building in the Czech Republic.[
The film uses the Overture to Der Freischutz by Carl Maria von Weber as the score for the movie.
Karel Horák (Jan Hartl) and Božena Horáková (Veronika Žilková) are a childless couple and for medical reasons are doomed to remain so. While on vacation with their neighbors at a house in the country, Karel decides to buy the house at the suggestion of his neighbor. When he is fixing up the house, he digs up a tree stump that looks vaguely like a baby. He spends the rest of the evening cleaning it up and then presents it to his wife. She names the stump Otík and starts to treat it like a real baby. She then works out a plan to fake her pregnancy and becoming more and more impatient she speeds up the process and 'gives birth' one month early.
Otík comes alive and has an insatiable appetite. Alžbětka (Kristina Adamcová), the neighbor's daughter, who has been suspicious all along, when she reads the fairy tale about Otesánek, the truth sets in for her. Meanwhile little Otík has been just eating and growing. At one point he eats some of Božena's hair, and another day she returns home to find that Otík has eaten their cat. Karel and his wife are at odds with Karel pushing for killing the thing and Božena defending it as their child. The baby later consumes a postal worker (Gustav Vondráček) and then a social worker (Jitka Smutná).
The resulting deaths lead Karel to tie up and lock Otík away in the basement of their apartment building, leaving Otík to starve. Alžbětka secretly takes over as prime caretaker. She tries to keep Otík fed with normal human food, but, when her mother stops her, she is forced to drawing straws (matches in this case) to choose a person to feed to Otík. The first victim is an old man and pedophile, Mr. Žlábek (Zdeněk Kozák), and the second victim is Karel himself, who had come with a chainsaw but on seeing Otík calls him "son" and drops the chainsaw. Afterwards, Božena goes into the basement and is heard screaming. In the end, Otík disobeys Alžbětka despite repeated warnings and eats the cabbage patch of the paní správcová (Dagmar Stříbrná), meaning porter's wife or an old woman.

JAN ŠVANKMAJER




Jan Švankmajer (Praga, 4 settembre 1934) è un regista e sceneggiatore ceco.

È un artista surrealista noto soprattutto per le sue opere d'animazione, che hanno ispirato artisti come Tim Burton, Terry Gilliam, i fratelli Quay e molti altri. In Italia è poco conosciuto poiché i suoi film non sono distribuiti né in pellicola, né in videocassetta, né in dvd.

«Il mondo si divide in due categorie di diversa ampiezza... quelli che non hanno mai sentito parlare di
Jan Švankmajer e quelli che hanno visto i suoi lavori e sanno di essersi trovati faccia a faccia con un genio».

(Anthony Lane - "The New Yorker")


Ha studiato all'Accademia delle belle Arti praghese specializzandosi in rappresentazioni con i burattini, regia e scenografia. Ha esordito nel cinema nel 1964 con il corto "Posledni trik pana Schwarzewaldea a pana Edgara" (The Last Trick). Durante la Primavera di Praga dirige quattro film che segnano il suo passaggio dal surrealismo al manierismo. Nel 1987 gira il suo primo lungometraggio, "Neco z Alenky" (Alice), presentato al Festival di Berlino. Del 1993 è il suo secondo film, "Lekce Faust" (Faust), presentato a Cannes e seguito nel 1996 da "Spiklenci slasti" (Conspirators of Pleasure).

Švankmajer si è guadagnato la sua reputazione dopo diversi decenni di lavoro e grazie alla sua tecnica peculiare dello stop-motion e per la capacità di creare immagini surreali, da incubo, e tuttavia in qualche modo buffe. Fino al 2005 è stato impegnato a Praga con la realizzazione di un nuovo film horror, Šílení, ispirato ai racconti di Edgar Allan Poe e del Marchese de Sade, la cui influenza era presente anche in molti suoi lavori passati.

Le caratteristiche dei film di Švankmajer sono:

* suoni esasperati, e che creano sempre un effetto assai strano, in tutte le scene in cui qualcuno si ciba;
* sequenze molto accelerate quando le persone camminano o interagiscono tra loro;
* oggetti inanimati che prendono improvvisamente vita attraverso la stop-motion.

Il cibo è uno dei temi e degli elementi che preferisce e la stop-motion è presente in tutti i suoi film, nonostante nei lungometraggi siano incluse anche scene dal vivo più o meno lunghe.

Molti suoi film, come il cortometraggio Down to the Cellar, sono girati con una prospettiva infantile, e, allo stesso tempo, svelano una natura aggressiva e disturbante.

Oggi è celebrato come uno dei più grandi animatori al mondo. I suoi lavori più famosi sono probabilmente i lungometraggi Alice, del 1988, Faust, del 1994, Conspirators of Pleasure, del 1996, e Otesánek, del 2000. Altrettanto conosciuto (ed imitato) è il corto Dimension of Dialogue (1982), che mostra teste simili a quelle di Arcimboldo che si riducono l'una l'altra fino a diventare tutte uguali ("exhaustive discussion"), un uomo e una donna d'argilla che si dissolvono sessualmente l'uno dentro l'altro, poi litigano e si riducono a una frenetica poltiglia bollente ("passionate discourse"); e due teste di argilla più anziane che tirano fuori vari oggetti dalle loro lingue (spazzolini e dentifrici, scarpe e lacci, ecc.) e li usano in ogni combinazione possibile, sensata o meno ("factual conversation").

Fu sposato con Eva Švankmajerová una pittrice surrealista, ceramista e scrittrice di fama internazionale, fino alla morte di lei, nel 2005. La Švankmajerová prese parte a molti suoi film, tra i quali Faust, Otésanek e Alice.

Jan Švankmajer (Czech pronunciation: [ˈjan ˈʃvaŋkmajɛr]; born 4 September 1934) is a Czech filmmaker and artist whose work spans several media. He is a self-labeled surrealist known for his surreal animations and features, which have greatly influenced other artists such as Tim Burton, Terry Gilliam, the Brothers Quay, and many others.

Jan Švankmajer was born in Prague. An early influence on his later artistic development was a puppet theatre he was given for Christmas as a child. He studied at the College of Applied Arts in Prague and later in the Department of Puppetry at the Prague Academy of Performing Arts. He contributed to Emil Radok's film Doktor Faust in 1958 and then began working for Prague's Semafor Theatre where he founded the Theatre of Masks. He then moved on to the Laterna Magika multimedia theatre, where he renewed his association with Radok. This theatrical experience is reflected in Švankmajer's first film The Last Trick, which was released in 1964. Under the influence of theoretician Vratislav Effenberger Švankmajer moved from the mannerism of his early work to classic surrealism, first manifested in his film The Garden (1968), and joined the Czechoslovakian Surrealist Group.
He was married to Eva Švankmajerová, an internationally known surrealist painter, ceramicist, and writer until her death in October 2005. Švankmajerová collaborated on several of her husband's movies, including Alice, Faust, and Otesánek. They had two children, Veronika (b. 1963) and Václav (b. 1975, an animator).
Švankmajer has gained a reputation over several decades for his distinctive use of stop-motion technique, and his ability to make surreal, nightmarish, and yet somehow funny pictures. He continues to make films in Prague.
Švankmajer's trademarks include very exaggerated sounds, often creating a very strange effect in all eating scenes. He often uses fast-motion sequences when people walk or interact. His movies often involve inanimate objects being brought to life through stop-motion. Many of his films also include clay objects in stop-motion, otherwise known as clay animation. Food is a favourite subject and medium.
Stop-motion features in most of his work, though recently his feature films have included much more live action sequences than animation.
Many of his movies, like the short film Down to the Cellar, are made from a child's perspective, while at the same time often having a truly disturbing and even aggressive nature. In 1972 the communist authorities banned him from making films, and many of his later films were suppressed. He was almost unknown in the West until the early 1980s.
Today Švankmajer is one of the most celebrated animators in the world. Among his best known works are the feature films Alice (1988), Faust (1994), Conspirators of Pleasure (1996), Little Otik (2000) and Lunacy (2005), a surreal comic horror based on two works of Edgar Allan Poe and the life of Marquis de Sade. The two stories by Poe, "The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether" and "The Premature Burial", provide Lunacy its thematic focus, whereas the life of Marquis de Sade provides the film's blasphemy. Also famous (and much imitated) is the short Dimensions of Dialogue (1982), selected by Terry Gilliam as one of the ten best animated films of all time. His films have been called "as emotionally haunting as Kafka's stories. His latest film is Surviving Life from 2010.
His next project is called Insects (Hmyz). It has a projected budget of 40 million CZK and a preliminary release set to 2015. The film will be based on the play Pictures from the Insects' Life by Karel Čapek, which Švankmajer describes as following: "This Čapek´s play is a very misanthropic, and I always liked it — bugs behave as a human beings, and people behave as insects. It also reminds one a lot of Franz Kafka and his famous Metamorphosis.
