Un Chien Andalou

PROLOGUE
Once Upon a Time ...
A balcony at night.
A man is sharpening a razor by the balcony. The man looks
at the sky through the window-panes and sees ...
A light cloud moving toward the full moon.
Then a young woman's head, her eyes wide open. A razor blade
moves toward one of the eyes.
The light cloud passes now across the moon.
The razor blade cuts through the eye of the young woman,
slicing it.
End of Prologue.
EIGHT YEARS LATER
A deserted street. It is raining.
A character dressed in a dark-gray suit appears riding a
bicycle. His head, back and loins are adorned in ruffles of
white linen. A rectangular box with black and white diagonal
stripes is secured to his chest by straps. The character
pedals mechanically without holding the handlebars, with his
hands resting on his knees.
Read more (quite surprising, it contains the Surrealists Manifesto as
well...)
