With an unabashed passion for symmetry and the power of systems, Greenaway delivers an intriguing digression on the life cycle as the most complex and symmetrical of systems. Separated Siamese twins find themselves enmeshed with a one-legged paramour and twin daughters while they continue their experiments with the time-lapse aesthetics of decay.
