Jean-Gabriel Périot – Nijuman no borei AKA 200 000 fantômes AKA 200 000 Phantoms (2007)
Quote:
The film presents a succession of inanimate images of the Genbaku dome, the Peace Memorial in the Japanese city of Hiroshima.
To the gentle, haunting music of Current 93 (‘Larkspur and Lazarus’), some 650 images scroll past, all centred on the architecture of this symbolic edifice, the only building still standing after the atomic bomb exploded on the city on 6 August 1945.
The selected images offer a vision of the building and a panorama of the city over the period from 1914, when the building was constructed, to 2006. The explosion of the bomb gives way to a white screen after the forty-fifth frame. The film then slowly moves on to the devastated city and, from the reconstruction stage onwards, resumes its original pace before accelerating towards the end.
Genbaku Dome has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996.
