The magnum opus of Dadaist film celebrates the photogenics of discreet objects, where among the captured objects, their mobile rayograms, and engaging asymmetrical shadows, we see a shot of the naked body of Kiki from Montparnassus, muse of the entire interwar artistic generation in Paris, who becomes a graceful projection surface for the penetration of light through the window in a perfect geometry of desire.

English Considering the short circumstances that led to the birth of this Dadaist film, I must admit that even as a neutral viewer of Dada I was not disappointed after watching it, but on the other hand I prefer meaningful sequences of shots. ()
