A surreally transgressive adaptation of Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, Juráček's Case for a Rookie Hangman tells the tale of a man trapped in a parallel world to the familiar Communist-era Czechoslovakia. Provoking the authorities with its biting political satire, this film was 'banned forever' by the Czech government at the time.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
