Quay Brothers: The Short Films 1979-2003

And Then There Were None

The first Czech feature-length brickfilm - that is, a film made using stop-motion animation with Lego bricks. It is a non-commercial film based on Agatha Christie’s most popular novel. Creator Lukáš Tuzar worked on the film for seven years. Ten people who seem different at first glance are invited to Black Island, but they do have something in common. When they arrive on the island, the mysterious host is nowhere to be found. On the first evening, the guests learn the real reason for the invitation. Remember, sins always come to light.
