'The Pier'

Twenty-eight minutes of still photographs in French telling the story of a post-apocalyptic Paris where survivors of World War III are living underground.

They research time travel to somehow improve their current situation. The candidate is chosen thanks to a vivid memory of seeing a man die on a pier.

He goes into the past then the future. Eventually he's sent to his own past, the moment on the pier.

He's followed by a jailer. The memory on the pier was that of his own death. Zing!

You can take my word for it or just spend 28 minutes discovering it yourself.
