Kafuka: Inaka isha

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.
