Director Peter Gardos (THE LAST BLUES) interweaves three whimsical fables of Hungarian rural life in this award-winning drama. Adapted Taken from the novel STAR FARM by Hungarian writer Ervin Lazar, the stories focus on life, death, and resurrection. The first involves a gawky but athletic teenager who bests a series of visiting soldiers in various athletic competitions. In the second, a visiting state official promises he can resurrect the dead, prompting the villagers to exhume four bodies with startling results. Finally, an elderly couple outwits the authorities who want them to relocate with a highly unusual trick. Gardos combines a variety of camera tricks and visual techniques to produce a trio of tales with thought-provoking endings reminiscent of O.Henry or Rod Serling. Taking place between the 1930s and 1950s, the tales serve as allegories for the historical events of the 20th century.

Summary: porcelain doll
Comment: Porcelain Doll is a film that will make you a believer. Although the stories in this movie are fairly different, they share a central theme of resurrection. And while the film may seem quite fantastical, the beautiful way in which the characters lives are woven together by a common bond of survival can only force a viewer to connect, rather than pass it off as just some majestic fairytale. The simple way in which Porcelain Doll paints a much bigger picture is what makes it such a unique and stunning film. And while a film about miracles, it doesn't need the big theatrics of Hollywood cinema to touch the heart and intrigue the senses. A must see for anyone with an open mind and an understanding of symbolism in the arts.
