The Quay Brothers in 35mm

Curated by Christopher Nolan, this touring series includes three short masterworks by The Brothers Quay. The nightmarish netherworld of Street Of Crocodiles (1986, 20 min), broken pencils and lead shavings in In Absentia (2000, 20 min), a porcelain doll's explorations of a dreamer's imagination in The Comb (1991, 18 min) and for the first time ever, Quay (2015, 9 min), Nolan's new short film revealing the inner workings of the Brothers' studio. American identical twins working in London, stop motion animators Stephen and Timothy Quay are masters of miniaturization, their work distinguished by their dark humor and dream-like imagery.
