Stille Nacht II:  Are We Still Married?

UNITED KINGDOM 1992 4'

A surreal and biting short on the breakdown of human relationships. In just a few minutes, animated objects and grotesque figures suggest a marriage in collapse, shaped by repetition, absurdity, and failed communication. Both comic and cruel, the film condenses the Quay Brothers’ characteristic bitter irony.
