Les Ramoneurs cérébraux

TheBrainwashers

A man is taken to the doctor's office, but it's not for an ordinary checkup. He looks terror-stricken. A huge syringe is thrust into his head. Out of the syringe oozes a sticky yellowish liquid that magically turns into two sinister-looking men, pale as corpses, dressed as 19th century chimney sweeps. What are they going to do in that poor man's head ? Like pros, the brainwashers get down to business with imperturbable calm, clearing all the memories out of the victim's brain. Atypical of the work produced in Canada, this ambitious, flamboyant production recalls recent Czech and British trends in puppet animation.
