This is the fourth Quay Brothers' film in the Stille Nacht series, and while most of the shorts in the series have no connection whatsoever to each-other, this short does. As with "Are We Still Married?" the music is again by This Name is Alive. And yet again, the moving ankles of the doll are here, only this time on a scale. However, there's a variety of other themes that run in here: a creepy-looking rabbit (which we also saw in "Are We Still Married?"), ghostly figures which are only half there, etc. There's also some dark imagery, such as what looks like blood seeping out of a crack.
Again, the music has nothing to do what is happening onscreen but I suppose that's a music video for you. At first, the music sounded odd and didn't seem to go with anything onscreen, but after a bit I grew to like the soundtrack. Mind you, I am actually a classical music fan. But I liked this. All in all, fans of the Quay Brothers or music videos in general will want to watch it. Though there isn't a plot, the Quay Brothers show how film can be an art form without taking too much of your time up and yet can still capture your attention.
