Les Bulles de savon vivantes
Soap Bubbles
Year: 1906

A theatre stage, a woman born from a curl of magic smoke, soap bubbles with a human face that successively transform into butterfly-women then into the Three Graces… An illusionist none other than Méliès leads the show, has fun and amuses us right up to the moment he himself rises into the air, in a giant soap bubble.
At the peak of his success Georges Méliès showed this passion for conjuring that led him to the cutting edge of cinema.
