Sinopsis
"An intimate and personal portrait of the Royal Belgian Cinémathèque. On the screen, flashes of the world, an idea of History, of beauty. I am what I've seen, said Matisse. But all the images seen do not remain intact. Even less so the image of oneself. Time crosses them, spoils them, torments them. And this sensitive skin - nitrate - is the symptom of this. Archipels Nitrate talks about cinema and time in the form of a visual symphony in which a hundred films partake of a unique and identical journey." (Claudio Pazienza)
