Three Lives and Only One Death

Three Lives and Only One Death

1996123 min6.5 / 10

A surreal, playfully enigmatic tapestry of four interconnected Parisian tales that blend the mundane with the fantastical, prioritizing narrative puzzle-making and visual whimsy over emotional clarity.

Four intertwining stories of bizarre occurrences in Paris featuring a man who was stolen away by fairies, a professor who becomes a tramp, the lovers who inherit a chateau – and the last tale that connects all that has gone before.
