False Future, 2007 takes up the story of Louis Le Prince (1842–1890), the
little-known inventor who succeeded in developing a working motion picture
system at least five years before the Lumière Brothers. Had Le Prince not
mysteriously disappeared while traveling from Dijon to Paris by train in 1890
he would most likely be known today as the originator of cinema. False Future
speculates on this false-start in the history of filmmaking, focusing on the drives
and desires that lie behind the invention and reception of moving images.
