Retrospektiva bratov Quay III / The Brothers Quay Retrospective III
Zgodbe iz dunajskega gozda / Tales from the Vienna Woods (Stille Nacht III)
Stephen & Timothy Quay (Koninck Studios)
Velika Britanija/UK, 1992, 35 mm, 3’
Tretji film serije Stille Nacht je izlet v temačne, pravljične gozdove iz domišljije bratov Quay, ki vsebuje podobe, pozneje uporabljene tudi v celovečernem filmu Institute Benjamenta.
The third film of the Stille Nacht series is an excursion into the dark, dream-like forests of the Quays' imagination which features imagery later used in the feature Institute Benjamenta.
Kabinet Jana Švankmajerja / The Cabinet of Jan Švankmajer
Stephen & Timothy Quay (Large Door Ltd./Channel Four)
Velika Britanija/UK, 1984, 16 mm, 14’
Film sestavlja devetih malih lekcij iz zaznavanja, ki jih lutkovna podoba Jana Švankmajerja, čigar glava je odprta knjiga, predaja lutki, kateri gospodar glavo očisti nesnage ter jo napolni s podobno odprto knjigo. “Presenetljivo očarljivi in prijetni izleti v osupljivo (ter pogosto hudo mučno) delo tega ustvarjalca." Julian Petley
This film is structured as a series of nine little lessons in perception, taught by a puppet simulacrum of Jan Švankmajer, whose head is an opened book, to a doll whose head the master empties of dross and refills with a similar open book. “Charming and delightful excursions into this astonishing (and often deeply disturbing) directors work.” –Julian Petley
Brez tebe ne more spodleteti / Can’t Go Wrong Without You (Stille Nacht IV)
Stephen & Timothy Quay (Koninck Studios)
Velika Britanija/UK, 1993, 35 mm, 3’
Tako kot Ali sva še vedno poročena? tudi četrti film serije Stille Nacht prikazuje belega zajca in otroško lutko ob glasbeni spremljavi nežnih melodij skupine His Name Is Alive.
The fourth film of the Stille Nacht series, in which, as in Are We Still Married?, a white rabbit and a child's doll are choreographed to the ethereal tunes of His Name Is Alive.
Glavnik / The Comb
Stephen & Timothy Quay (Koninck Studios)
Velika Britanija/UK, 1990, 35 mm, 17’
Pravljična mini drama je posvetilo pisatelju Robertu Walserju. Nemirni spanec speče lepotice vznemirja prisotnost nečesa zlega in hkratni viteški pohod kneziča, ki prispe na rob jesenskega gozda.
A fairytale dramalette in homage to the writings of Robert Walser. The restless sleep of a sleeping beauty is agitated by an evil presence and by the parallel quest of a princeling who arrives at the edge of an autumnal forest.
Maska / The Mask
Stephen & Timothy Quay (Se-Ma-For Film/Polish Institute London/Render 305)
Poljska, Velika Britanija/Poland, UK, 2010, 35 mm, 23’
V zgodbi korak za korakom, malo po malo, nastaja "nekaj", v nenadnem trenutku "privzetja spola" pa stroj pridobi obliko prelepe ženske Duenne. Neusmiljena Duenna se poda na misijo v veliko kraljestvo, kjer hoče najti in uničiti princa (...). Kot kaže, je stroj v procesu tako imenovanega "privzetja spola" privzel tudi element zavesti. Toda za to zavest niti gledalec niti stroj sam še ne vesta. Vsa zgodba temelji na tej večplastni in zaskrbljujoči dvoumnosti. Biti programiran za ubijanje, hkrati pa sposoben dvomiti v ta program. Konflikt med strojem in dušo v filmu ustvari opustitev zaupanja in dvoma." Brata Quay
Within the story 'it' is created step by step, bit by bit, until at the sudden moment of 'acquiring gender' the machine takes on the form of a beautiful woman, Duenna. The merciless Duenna sets off on a mission to a great kingdom to find and destroy the prince (…). It seems that the machine, in the course of the so-called 'acquisition of gender', acquired an element of consciousness. Yet this consciousness is still unclear to the viewer and even the machine herself. The whole story is based on this multi-layered and worrisome ambiguity. Programmed to kill, while at the same time capable of questioning the program. This conflict between the machine and the soul creates a suspension of belief and disbelief within the film." The Quay Brothers
