That is a hare wearing a waistcoat, and carrying a watch.

Case for a Rookie Hangman (1970) is nominally a Gulliver's travels adaptation, but is also inspired by the works of Kafka and yes, Carroll.

More on this soon (hopefully!)

I only found out about this after reviewing Valerie and her Week of Wonders and Daisies, so I guess reviewing old Carroll inspired Czech films for down the Rabbit Hole Project was a really good idea!

Irritatingly the source I found appears to be defunct...
