Zoo / A Zed & Two Noughts

“Peter Greenaway’s magnificently ambitious, seriously odd second film matches astonishing visuals to themes of twinship, natural history, decay, perversity, and the qualities of light. 

It remains a beguiling, beautiful experience, exquisitely shot, and if you’ve never seen Greenaway, this is the place to start appreciating one of Britain’s most disgracefully under-appreciated directors.”

— Anna Smith, Empire

Identical twins lose their wives in a car crash caused by a white swan. Both brothers are zoologists and become obsessed with the death and decay of animals. They develop a strange and unusual relationship with the woman driving the car, who is now an amputee.
