The Lost Town Of Switez – Die verlorene Stadt
Animation, 20 min.
Coproduction
by Kamil Polak
Poland / Switzerland / France / Canada / Denmark, January 2011
Un homme voyage de nuit dans une carriole. Le cocher fouette les chevaux. Un orage éclate. L’obscurité est parcourue de lumières bizarres. Soudain, les chevaux se cabrent: une femme, au milieu du chemin, qui disparaît aussitôt. L’homme prend peur, la carriole se disloque, des cavaliers tirent vers la forêt avec des flèches enflammées. L’homme court à en perdre haleine. Il tombe dans un profond lac et dans le temps passé.
