Когда Алиса следует за Белым Кроликом в Страну чудес, начинаются ее приключения в удивительном мире детских фантазий, она преодолевает многие опасности и спасает сказочную страну от злой Дамы Червей. Объединяя методы мультипликации и живого действия, чешский аниматор Ян Шванкмайер создал шедевр кино, поразительно интерпретировав первоначальную идею классического рассказа Льюиса Кэррола. Картина вышла настоящим шедевром, оправдывающим свой жанр, и идеально совмещая атмосферу ужасов, триллера, сказки и фантастики. Лучшая экранизация «Алисы» за все время существования кино, передающая всю суть содержания первоисточника.
