"We do not move in one direction, rather do we wander back and forth, turning now this way and now that. We go back on our own tracks . . .' That thought of Montaigne's reminds me about something I thought of in connection with flying saucers, humanoids, and the remains of unbelievably advanced technology found in some ancient ruins. They write about aliens, but I think that in these phenomena we are in fact confronting ourselves; that is our future, our descendants who are actually traveling in time."

This short is great. I wrote Chris once and he sent me a picture of William Of Egypt!
Un chat poète nous ouvre les portes d’un nouveau monde. Comme une promesse. Espérons qu’elle soit tenue et que d’autres petits films suivront.
