Description:
A couple's life takes a bizarre turn when they are unexpectedly turned into skeletons by Wilhelm Roentgen's newly discovered X-rays in late 1890s Germany. The film cleverly connects Roentgen's groundbreaking discovery with Georges Méliès' innovative use of jump cuts for special effects, marking two important moments in movie history. As the couple adjusts to their skeletal forms, the story presents a visually impressive look at early special effects while examining themes of love, change, and the impact of science on human life.
