ReviewsTerry Gilliam - The most visually beautiful and hauntingly humorous film I have seen in the last 300 years, Chicago Sun-Times - There is, to be sure, a stark and sometimes hypnotic beauty to the imagery. And the Quays are clever in their use of music, ranging from choral chants to bursts of free jazz
Additional InformationA young man enrols at a dilapidated boarding school for trainee servants, only to discover that all the lessons being taught are exactly the same! Over time, he becomes entangled in the strange lives of the students and headmasters alike. <BR>British animators The Brothers Quay turn their hand to live-action for the first time, resulting in this curiously fascinating film.
