SYNOPSIS

Eugene Atget's photographs of the banal and the everyday are magnificently transformed into eerily ethereal boulevards, strange and fantastical shop fronts and spooky phantoms that haunt the streets. Does his Paris, full of magic, nostalgia and lyricism, still exist or has it disappeared forever?
