A Zed & Two Noughts

Oswald and Oliver Deuce (Brian and Eric Deacon) are twin zoologists who want to understand why their wives died, killed in a car crash caused by a white swan. They start filming animals as they rot, and they form a strange bond with Venus de Milo (Frances Barber), the driver, now an amputee. Peter Greenaway follows the brothers as the grief hardens into a study of decay, and neither man will look away.
