Quay Brothers: The Short Films 1979-2003

Dir. Quay Brothers

UK-Europe-Japan 2006 | | 255 mins | Cert 12

Filtering a huge range of literary, musical, cinematic and philosophical influences through their own utterly distinctive sensibility, each Quay film is a dialogue-free and usually non-narrative experience, riveting the attention through hypnotic control of décor, music and movement. With a grasp of the uncanny that rivals Luis Buñuel and Lewis Carroll, their films evoke half-remembered dreams and long-suppressed childhood memories, fascinating and deeply unsettling by turns. This colection is a selection of 13 short films.
