12 Great French Surrealist Films That Are Worth Your Time

"France is considered to be responsible for influencing the surrealist movement due to surrealism emerging from Dada art in Paris during WWI. The goal of surrealist art was to liberate imagination and the subconscious mind.
In the early 1920s, surrealists sought out a new art form that was separate from paintings and sculptures and discovered the perfect medium: cinema. They found comfort in films for it enabled them to allow the subconscious to speak.
Surrealist cinema continues to be distinctive among other film genres because it takes a simplistic plot and incorporated underlying abstract themes that words can't even begin to describe. These films are made to leave a sempiternal effect on the human psyche".
