Today, we’ll focus on morbid slapstick comedy with a selection of films from Disney’s classic The Skeleton Dance to Phil Mulloy’s darkly humours The Banker to Happy End that exemplifies the distinctive naive morbidity typical for Jaromír Plachý, the author of this year’s visual identity of this year’s Anifilm.
