Shot in CinemaScope, it is the puppet feature to use widescreen, bringing Shakespeare’s beloved comedy to life. The film blends three realms: the aristocratic world of three Athenian couples, the amateur theatre of tradesmen, and an enchanted forest of elves and nymphs. Hailed as Jiří Trnka’s most remarkable work, it remains a landmark in world animation.
