Plot Summary

"Les Malheurs d'Émile Cohl" shows the ravages of time on the copy of the film "Les Chapeaux des belles dames" which Émile Cohl shot in 1909. Slowing down the most damaged parts of the film from the father of the animation, Gérard Courant has succeeded in creating an object with abstract shapes and, paradoxically, in giving another life to Cohl's work." --Courant
