The Wedding of Mr. Marzipan
Ženidba gospodina Marcipana
A satire on the false happiness provided by consumer goods and bourgeois rituals done in an eye-poppingly gorgeous, extremely artificial style that ingeniously mixes colour with black and white, and combines live action with animation and even bits of puppetry!
