In a desolate world, a few survivors remain after a nuclear war. The male protagonist (Davos Hanich) has always witnessed the death of a stranger in his childhood dreams, making him a subject of time travel experiments. He is sent back to the eve of the nuclear war, where he meets a woman (Hélène Chatelain) and falls in love with her. As the experiment nears its end, he is to be sent to a future that has escaped the calamity. However, he refuses the opportunity, determined to be with the woman he loves. Ultimately, he realizes that the death he frequently dreamed of in his childhood was, in fact, his own. This sci-fi avant-garde short film "The Bank," directed and written by Chris Mark, a representative figure of the French New Wave Left Bank movement, is a milestone in the history of science fiction films. The entire film uses completely still images to simulate humanity's impression of the past, telling a story set in a post-apocalyptic world. With impactful soundscapes, smooth and concise editing, and a poetic narrative, a fragment of shattered memories is vividly illustrated.
