The Mystery of the Haunted Castle
Watch TrailerPetr, an ordinary schoolboy from Prague, discovers an ancient book with moving illustrations in his grandmother's basement. Opening it to a page depicting a castle, he suddenly finds himself in its halls, where shadows converse and knightly armor comes to life at night. Teaming up with a ghostly girl named Eliška who cannot remember her own name, the boy must solve the central mystery: why all the castle's inhabitants are frozen in time, and who stole the stars from the celestial ceiling of the ballroom. Their quest leads them to the Clockwork Keeper, a being of gears and ticking mechanisms who knows the way back. But to return home, Petr will have to make a choice that will alter the fate of the castle itself.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Director Jan Novák employs puppet animation blended with live-action, evoking the feeling of a tale from an old children's storybook. The camera often mimics a child's perspective, peeking through keyholes or under staircases.
Those who tire of overly digital spectacles will find charm in the tangible magic of creaking floorboards, dusty sunbeams in the library, and the whispers of tapestries. What lingers after is the sense that wonder can be held in your hands. — MovieFinder Editorial

A cozy weekend afternoon with the whole family, wrapped in blankets as the first snow swirls outside the window.
