Incorporating Lynch’s earliest forays into filmmaking, this selection of shorter works illustrates the director’s restless creativity, the breadth of his imagination and his ability to unsettle.

Music is produced by different objects in an industrial and desolate landscape.

Bug Crawls (Dir David Lynch, US 2008, 5 mins)
Shot on digital video, Bug Crawls features a bug crawling over a house and falling on his back, accompanied by trademark dark ambient music.
