The Three-Sided Mirror
La glace à trois faces
Jean Epstein's playful, non-linear short about a wealthy businessman's relationship with three different women. Told via flashback as each woman recounts her story, Three-Sided Mirror broke cinematic conventions before they were even established, merging past, present and future into a free-spirited tale of romantic rivalry and jealousy.
Screens with The Fall of the House of Usher (France, 65 mins).
