The Strange Eyes of Dr. Myes

Take a one-of-a-kind trip with The Strange Eyes of Dr. Myes, the first feature from acclaimed animator Nancy Andrews. The campy, neo-underground cult movie combines live action and animation, as well as tropes from sci-fi, horror films, and Hollywood musicals, to tell the story of a rogue researcher attempting to graft animal senses onto her own. After a near-death experience, she alienates herself from the medical field with revolutionary attempts to expand human consciousness. Andrews’s eclectic techniques and unruly storyline add up to a wildly inventive and entertaining feat of imagination. Made with extensive postproduction support from the center’s Film/Video Studio Program. (76 mins., DCP)
