La Jetée is a seminal work of science fiction cinema, known for its unconventional narrative style and its influence on the genre. The film tells the story of a post-apocalyptic world where a man is sent back in time to prevent a catastrophic event. Composed almost entirely of still photographs, La Jetée explores themes of memory, time, and identity. Its innovative storytelling and visual style have made it a landmark in the French New Wave movement.
