Games on Reflection and Speed

Director: Henri Chomette | France 1925 | 8 min | DCP | Without dialogue

A frenzied view of Paris over the rails, a trip across the Seine by boat. In his debut work, Henri Chomette crosses tunnels and elevated railroads without a plot. Using techniques such as dissolves and time-lapse, Chomette transforms the dynamics of the city into an abstract visual experience.
