Anomalisa, GFT, 11 – 17 March, 2016.

A one-of-a-kind romance from the beautiful mind of Charlie Kaufman.
Friday 11 – Thursday 17 March
Running time: 1h30m
This latest mesmerising masterwork from the beautiful mind of Charlie Kaufman (Synecdoche, New York) is a one-of-a-kind romance. It was first a live radio play and comes to the screen via the miracle of stop-motion animation, co-directed by Kaufman and Duke Johnson, director of animated episodes of the cult TV show Community. The end result is a haunting tale of the constant ache for human connection, and the fleeting nature of happiness. Topping many of 2015’s films of the year list and closing this year’s Glasgow Film Festival, Anomalisa offers a plaintive exploration of all the little things that make us human.
