Institute Benjamenta

UK 1996, 104 minutes, B/W.
Dir. The Brothers Quay
Genres: Cult

Topics: Arthouse.

Feat. Mark Rylance, Alice Krige, Gottfried John

Aroview: A meek, alienated German (Mark Rylance) enlists in a bizarrely regimented academy for butlers in this live-action debut of renowned animators, The Brothers' Quay. A fragile, poetic and unusual foray into a Kafkaesque world of fertile imaginings, painted with some of the most exquisite light and shade the art-form has to offer.
