CK's short films coming to Criterion Channel next month

Great news for Criterion Channel subscribers: How To Shoot a Ghost and Jackals & Fireflies both feature in March's line-up!

While Charlie Kaufman is best known for cerebral, intricately constructed metafictions like Anomalisa and Synecdoche, New York, his recent collaborations with writer Eva H.D. find him working in a different mode: impressionistic, intuitive, and vividly sensorial. Both city symphonies of a kind, these two shorts—the restless New York cine-poem Jackals & Fireflies and the aching, Athens-set elegy How to Shoot a Ghost, starring Jessie Buckley—drift dreamily through the urban landscape, finding bruising poignancy in the small, fleeting moments and encounters that give life its infinite richness.
