This is a largely live-action film from the legendary Czech filmmaker Jan Svankmeyer, best known for his brilliant, twisted animation. The dark LUNACY is in the same vein as that work, an allegorical "philosophical horror movie" influenced by the work of the Marquis de Sade and Edgar Allen Poe about freedom and control, with an impressive Czech cast that includes Jan Tríska, Ana Geislerová, Pavel Liska, and Jaroslav Dusek.
