The different strands of Jerry Schatzberg's filmmaking are beautifully combined in this short film he was invited to make in 1995 for a centenary tribute to the Lumière Brothers and their extraordinary invention. Using an original cinématographe camera, Schatzberg reworks the forms of 1895 (one, unbroken shot of 52 seconds from a fixed camera position) to stage an encounter that is both familiar and unexpected.
