Club of the Discarded

1989 · 25 min

A wordless, grimy stop-motion nightmare of cracked faces and creeping dread that feels like a decaying fairy tale you can't look away from.

Directed by
Jiří Barta

Animation, Fantasy, Horror
Overview
Laid-off old mannequins spend their cracked and broken lives in an old, abandoned warehouse. New mannequins are brought to the warehouse. They are old as well, but from a younger generation. The two groups must live together, but it's not easy at all.
How it feels
Slow-burning and demanding.
