The scene of the train's arrival and passengers boarding and disembarking.

A steamboat coming to port.

A group of people are standing along the platform of a railway station in La Ciotat, waiting for a train. One is seen coming, at some distance, and eventually stops at the platform. Doors of the railway-cars open and attendants help passengers off and on. Popular legend has it that, when this film was shown, the first-night audience fled the café in terror, fearing being run over by the "approaching" train. This legend has since been identified as promotional embellishment, though there is evidence to suggest that people were astounded at the capabilities of the Lumières' cinématographe.

What will happen if propaganda will lose its voice? And become a pure silent movie performance. Suddenly it appears to be less powerful & impactful. Theatrical essence of propaganda is clear & striking. Journalists & hosts are actors on the scene of post-Greek theater embodying tragedy on screen. "The Society of the Spectacle" needs its own Avengers & propaganda fill these needs with fine actors. Sound is something we strive to find on YouTube, in social media or TikTok. Silent videos become uncomfortable unless they aren't filled with entertainment (including guns, murders or big newsbreak slogans).

A remake of L'Arrivée d'un Train en gare de La Ciotat made with a stereoscopic film camera, exhibited along with a series of other 3D shorts by Louis Lumière at a 1935 meeting of the French Academy of Science.

Filmed in 1896 by Alexandre Promio for the Lumière company, this short actuality presents one of the earliest traveling shots in cinema. With the camera mounted on a gondola, the film glides along Venice’s Grand Canal, capturing passing gondolas, bustling waterfront activity, and the city’s iconic architecture from a moving perspective. This simple yet groundbreaking technique introduced audiences to a new way of experiencing motion on screen.
