La República Checa tiene 3 pilares sobre las que edifica su nación e identidad: Emil Zátopek, Pavel Nedvěd y este corto del Hobbit.

El genial director checo sublima en tan solo 12 minutos todo lo banal dejando ante nosotros una obra elegante, onírica y perturbadora (gracias a las increíbles ilustraciones del mitazo Adolf Born, tan mito que nombraron en su honor a un asteroide) de esencias, sensaciones, fantasía y personas. Sobre todo personas.

Gracias al tipo que rebusco en su cajón de sastre y encontró la verdadera joya del arca del cine checo.
