Brothers of the Head -- In the 1970s a music promoter plucks Siamese twins from obscurity and grooms them into a freakish rock'n'roll act. A dark tale of sex, strangeness and rock music.

The Russia House -- Alcoholic book editor from a bargain-basement publishing house in Great Britain, 'Barley' Scott Blair (Sean Connery), would rather be drinking in Lisbon than attending a book dealers' show in Russia. To his surprise his boozy holiday ends early when CIA agent (Mac McDonald) pays him a visit. It seems that through a book show intermediary the CIA has received a package from Russian book editor Katya (Michelle Pfeiffer) that contains remarkably detailed notebooks written by a cynical Russian physicist named 'Dante' (Klaus-Maria Brandauer). The notebooks illustrate the jocularity of Russia's nuclear threat: Russian rockets 'suck instead of blow...and can't hit Nevada on a clear day,' in the harsh words of CIA Agent Russell Sheridan (Roy Scheider). Unsure of Dante's motives in sending the notebooks to Blair and questionable about the end of the nuclear arms race the British Secret Service decides to send Blair to new Russia to meet Katya. His objectives: to assess new Russia's involvements in the old Cold War and to verify the authenticity of the notebooks.

This feverish, mind-bending odyssey follows conjoined twins who are groomed into a searing Punk duo in the grimy 1970s. They share songs, they share fans, and they share women, even as their personal identities grow apart. A 2007 Spirit Award nominee for Best Cinematography, this IFC film takes you into a world of freaks and Rock & Roll.

A scientist experiments unlock the horrors of his mind. Visual wizard Ken Russell directs William Hurt, Blair Brown and a mind-blowing array of special effects.
