2005. Germany/Great Britain/France. Directed by the Quay Brothers. With Amira Casar, Gottfried John, Assumpta Serna, César Sarachu. In this mystical fairy tale, Malvina, an opera singer under the spell of the sinister Dr. Droz, is abducted to a dark, forested island where strange musical automata mark the time. Until, that is, the arrival of the innocent piano tuner Felisberto, whose efforts to rescue the singer from the doctor’s diabolical plans for an opera of the living dead result in his own entrapment. 95 min.
