I have not read the book by Franz Kafka but it can't be better or creepier than this drawn short-movie.

It's about an ill child and a doctor who should help the child... I can't say more.

The drawings are awesome, confusing, creepy and someway disgusting but in a way that it's still some kind of art.

The music absolutely fits, same for the voices. The whole atmosphere this short flick raises up so fast is incredible, I would really like to see more stuff like this. The only things I could compare it with are the flash animated cartoons by David Firth.

Just watch it, it's sick and dark but also beautiful in it's way.

Usually Kafka or anything that can be referred to as Kafka-esque in/and film just works, as holds true with the animated short, A Country Doctor. A haunting adaption from Japanese artist Koji Yamammura. The animation is amazing, gripping, bizarre and startling, completely keeping with the dark, surreal tone of the film. It certainly posses the ability to rattle viewers like few animated films can. Animated shorts come and go, hell most feature length films of any kind come and go, but this haunting masterpiece will stay with you.

Imaginative adaptation of one of most familiar Franz Kafka short stories. Nice for remind theoniric hypothesis of interpretation of text and for fair crafted details reflecting the atmosphere.

A good point - the fluidity of bodies and the loyalty to story , reflecting, in profound inspired manner, the ingrate situation of poor country medic and the drops of Dickensiat air working, in case of ill child, more than well.

Courageous and honest crafted adaptation.
