Inspired by the novel Jakob von Gunten by Robert Walser, it's the Quay Brothers' first live-action feature film.

Jakob enters a school, run by Johannes Benjamenta and his sorrowful sister Lisa, which trains servants. The all-male student body submits to unorthodox rituals and choreographed lessons designed to reduce them to “absolute zero.” Jakob finds the school to be an oppressive environment. Unexpectedly his presence arouses carnal desires in Lisa. Jakob is also drawn to her. After Lisa shows him the secret labyrinth below the school, Jakob gradually uncovers the mystical Institute's secrets. Lisa soon dies and the institute closes. Johannes and Jakob then leave together.

The film is an anti-fairytale as unique and astonishing as the Quay Brothers'  celebrated animations.

电影原型是Robert Walser的小说Jakob von Gunten,它是奎氏兄弟的第一部真人表演电影作品。

Jakob进入一所培训仆人的学校,它的主人是Johannes Benjamenta和他悲伤的妹妹Lisa。学生全是男生,他们学习一些非同寻常的仪式和舞蹈课程,目的是将他们“归零”。Jakob感觉有些压抑。而他的出现出人意料地唤醒了Lisa的欲望。JakobLisa也很着迷。Lisa向他揭示了学校下面暗藏的迷宫,Jakob慢慢发现了学校的神秘之处。不久Lisa就去世了,学校也关门了。JohannesJakob结伴离开。

电影是一部反童话,和奎氏兄弟著名的动画片一样独特而震撼。
