Orbis Pictus (1997)
9/10
Excellent and unique
21 March 2009
I went into the film not knowing much about it at all, and by the end I was quite exhilarated. Sulik and his writers give us story-telling at its very finest. The film plays like a fairy-tale, and like most fairy tales worth their salt, there's a layer of evil lurking below the innocent surface.

I have to disagree with the other user comment thus far (JM Laprise), not about the quality of the film, but more so its nature: this is certainly no feel-good film. Quite the contrary, I found it depressing. The concept of mixing reality with fantasy, and not vice versa, is rather ingenious, and it's executed very well here. I heartily recommend the film.
