Paris is destroyed after World War II and people living underground experiment to travel through time in a desperate attempt to save humankind.
A short film, revolutionary in its ideas and execution that was the inspiration for a well-known cult film, namely Twelve Monkeys. The gravity and depth are beautifully intensified by the long line of static images displayed with a sound background that only contains intense music, incomprehensible whispers and the categorical voice of the narrator. Short and effective!
