This film expresses the birth, love and death of a man incisively and vividly with black and white photos and sound. This story is false and true. It is going on between reality, the past and the future. The man in the story can hardly tell whether the woman is in the past or in the dream. In fact, it is the same for each of us. How do you know Are you not in a dream now? And a person's life is like a dream, can't tell the truth from the fake, but enjoy it.
The shooting angles in this film are all controlled very comfortably, and the sound of the heart beating easily draws people into this film.
The end of the film shocked me. I felt that I felt the same as the hero. I never thought that the dead man he saw when he was a child was himself.

La Jetée quotes

  • Narrator: [referring to The Woman's face] That face he had seen was to be the only peacetime image to survive the war. Had he really seen it? Or had he invented that tender moment to prop up the madness to come?

  • Narrator: He recited his lesson: because humanity had survived, it could not refuse to its own past the means of its survival. This sophism was taken for Fate in disguise.
