1895 is a picture about the life of brothers Auguste and Louis Lumiere, who have immortalized their names as inventors of cinematography. What inspired them?
The protagonist of the film is the Bat living in an old mill and fighting rats and crows. It’s the war fought by disproportioned forces, where the battle is won by cleverness, skill and cunning. Somewhere outside the mill another war is fought.
Balancing on the borders of the real and the unreal the film strives to express the monotony of this world, its illusory character, and emphasize the lack of spirituality in everyday routine.
