Fascinating color film shot in London during the late 1920's. It's amazing to see history in these everyday shots in a time that I know nearly nothing about. I'm a fan of The Great Gatsby, so that's as much as I know about the 20's.

A gorgeous 3D film by Clement Crocq, Margaux Durand-Rival and Nicolas Novali for the “Supinfocom Arles” in 2008. It depicts the antics of a young Peruvian boy, his Llama and a Pilot who goes through a psychedelic experience filled with Peruvian iconography and mysticism. Also check out the making of the film on CGSociety as it details the fascinating steps into creating a 3D short film.
