Apocalyptic visions, grimy institutions, and a terrifying reality of plague, paranoia, and duct-taped time travel, filmed in Gilliam\u2019s signature style of glorious collapse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Preceded by the short film <em>La Jet\u00e9e<\/em> (1962) by French director Chris Marker. While this 1962 classic is known as \u201cthe short that inspired \u201d it\u2019s also the ghost in the machine of all modern sci-fi. Built almost entirely from still photographs, it is a uniquely unsettling vision of unavoidable fate and the end of the world.
