Movie
Roberto is a “calesitero”; - a merry-go-round owner. Roberto talks about his work, and how the merry-go-round touches the lives of many generations; of parents and grandparents, who have seen their children grow and Develop. The film pays homage to inevitable change, but also to the things that remain, and humanity’s fight to keep alive the traces of a culture and a society that seems to be doomed to disappear.

MovieHistoryDocumentary
A group of people are standing along the platform of a railway station in La Ciotat, waiting for a train. One is seen coming, at some distance, and eventually stops at the platform. Doors of the railway-cars open and attendants help passengers off and on. Popular legend has it that, when this film was shown, the first-night audience fled the café in terror, fearing being run over by the "approaching" train. This legend has since been identified as promotional embellishment, though there is evidence to suggest that people were astounded at the capabilities of the Lumières' cinématographe.
