Adapting Jaroslav Hasek’s raucous satirical novel, and also bringing Josef Lada’s equally famous illustrations to garrulous puppet life, posed Trnka one of his biggest creative challenges. Trnka himself felt that the final episode was the most artistically successful, but there’s much to enjoy in all three, not least the way that the lackadaisical layabout Svejk’s own self-serving anecdotes are realized through cut-out animation.

Zahrada Jiřího Trnky patří mezi díla, která léta oslovují děti i dospělé. Má své kouzlo, poezii i humor. Pohádku Trnka nejen ilustroval, ale sám i napsal.Pět kluků otevře starou rozvrzanou branku a vejdou do krásné zahrady, kde potkají starého moudrého trpaslíka, zlomyslného kocoura a odhalují rozličná tajemství.
