Storyline
Featured review
Cold stillness of fate
Superb late '70s made-for-TV french film. Screenwriter, sometimes actor and in many occasions Luis Bunuel greatest collaborator Jean-Claude Carriere (Diary of a Chambermaid; Milky Way; Phantom of Liberty; etc.) hits right-on-the-head as a surgeon who slowly sinks in a maze of despair: Still pictures, taken by him with a Polaroid camera that he got from one of his hospital patients, start to show confusing images and eerie omissions. Convinced that the "object that freezes time" is trying to communicate, he relentlessly searches to decipher and understand the meaning of that visual language. Almost supernatural. Extremely effective. One of a kind.
