Information
For Pasha de Cartier timepiece, we’ve created a creative short film titled “Dimensions — Lost and Found”. With the theme of “Make your own path”, this film combines live-action and animation to highlight the connection between living beings and time.
The film explores a unique approach to the exploration of the past, present, and future. A time traveler appears in 1943 Shanghai, witnessing the slow and mystical life of its inhabitants. Through the protagonist’s ascension to different dimensions, he searches for the ‘artifacts’ he left behind. He leaps from the 2D old Shanghai to the 3D neon lights of Pudong, and then into a four-dimensional space where physical objects don’t exist, communication happens solely through consciousness. In the end, he gains the freedom to travel through time and dimensions.
