About

Singular British filmmaker Peter Greenaway (The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover 1989) showcases his trademark visual extravagance in this morbid tale of twin zoologists competing for the affection of the woman who was present when their wives died in the same car accident. Complemented by Michael Nyman's ravishing score, the film is a luridly engrossing submersion into necrotic romance, fraternal rivalry and the macabre world of decaying animals.
