When enemy Spanish officers arrive to arrest him, one of the soldiers realises that the book appears to tell the story of his grandfather and his surreal, mystical adventures in the region several decades before. He starts to translate the text for the soldier, and so begins a time-shifting, genre-hopping, ouroboros-like epic narrative, one that blends the gothic, quixotic and erotic, and in the process interrogates the very nature of storytelling itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChampioned by Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Saragossa Manuscript\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehas grown in status since its initial release from a cult oddity to a film widely regarded as one of greatest ever produced in Poland, and a work that cemented Wojciech Has as one of European cinema’s most visionary and idiosyncratic directors.
