In a desolate world filled with ruins, the male protagonist (Davos Hanich) becomes one of the few humans left alive after a nuclear war. As a child, he often dreamt of witnessing the death of a stranger, which turned him into a test subject for time travel. He is sent back to the past, just before the outbreak of the nuclear war, where he meets a woman (Hélène Chatelain) by the riverbank and falls in love with her. As the experiment comes to an end, he is to be sent to a future that has escaped the catastrophe. However, he declines this opportunity, determined to stay with the woman he loves. Ultimately, he realizes that the death he often dreamed of in childhood was, in fact, his own. This avant-garde sci-fi short film "Dam," directed and written by Chris Marker, a representative of the French New Wave Left Bank group, is a milestone in the history of science fiction cinema. The entire film uses completely still images to simulate humanity's impressions of the past, telling a story set after the end of the world. The concise and powerful sound design, smooth and succinct editing, combined with poetic and dreamlike narration, vividly depicts a fragment of shattered memories.
