Long before Woody Allen, the author sends his character onto the screen, where he ends up in the hands of mystical surgeons, revealing himself to be a movieman undergoing an intricate spiritualist montage. It is not the intestines that emerge from his abdominal cavity, but skeins of film. For cinephiles of new generations, this is a truly encyclopedic sketch about the technology of cinematic nature. Double exposure reprises; silhouettes in the negative (meaning not a bad mood, but a film original); editing with barbaric scissors – the character on the screen loses half of the body; there are gastric wastes in the form of a silent movie film with a silent hero.
