Film Synopsis

Pierrot has become obsessed with the passage of time.  Trapped in the dark inner world of his imagination, his life begins to feel like a film that has been speeded up.  Time passes, faster and faster.  Pierrot feels as though he is falling ever more quickly, not through space, but through its sister dimension, time.   Then, one night, just as Pierre's madness reaches its peak, he come face-to-face with an old man whom he recognises as himself.  What ensues is the most bizarre journey imaginable...
