L'homme des Confins

A series of three short films by Wladyslaw Starewicz presented together as a feature. Dans les grilles de t'araignée tells the story of a fly, Dame Aurélie, who casts aside her rural life and family for the bright lights of Paris, only to find the big city less welcoming than expected. Les yeux du dragon presents an old Chinese legend, as depicted on a shattered vase shown at the beginning of the film. Finally, Amour noir et blanc sees two mischievous cupids creating havoc, including establishing a love triangle between three performers (whose appearances happen to be based on Charlie Chaplin, Mary Pickford and Tom Mix).
