Synopsis

Maverick British director Peter Greenaway launched his career capitalizing on off-the-wall, intricate themes and stylistic panache. This compilation of shorts, spanning the years 1969–1978, is a superb introduction to the obsessions that run through his later work. Films included: Intervals, Windows, Dear Phone, H Is for House, A Walk Through H, and Water Wrackets.
