Short description

Stop-motion photography blends with extreme slow-motion in Clair's first and most 'dada' film, composed of a series of zany, interconnected scenes. We witness a rooftop chess match between Marcel Duchamp and Man Ray, a hearse pulled by a camel (and chased by its pallbearers) and a dizzying roller coaster finale. A film of contradictions and agreements.

What's left behind the scenes

  • "Intermission," shown during the break between the two acts of "The Swedish Ballet," which had been performing in Paris for over five years, caused quite a stir among Parisian intellectuals.
