The Time Travel Movie That Doesn’t Go Anywhere

Before you watch this analysis of Chris Marker’s fantastic La Jetée, you should watch the film itself

La Jetée, 28 minutes long, is famous for being made almost entirely of 422l B/W photographs (a photo-novel) with no traditional moving scenes, creating a unique, static yet profound journey through time and memory, and heavily influencing films like #12Monkeys. It is considered to be a “speculative fiction masterpiece”
