In this haunting one-minute stop-motion short, a doll with a cracked head sits at a table, watching in silent fascination as a magnet pulls metallic shavings across the floor. Amidst flickering light and the frantic fluttering of a moth against a window, the Quays create a claustrophobic, dreamlike atmosphere of microscopic suspense.
