- A man starts a job in a Natural History Museum. His function is to refresh the alcohol in jars containing preserved species which disgusts him. The Museum's goal is to have every species of animal preserved. The ending is great.
- For one last time, at age 93, cigar in hand, the legendary Sir Ken brandishes his Flo-Master, deploying a felt-tip pen as he recreates the designs he conjured for the supposedly nuclear blast-proof conference room, located below the Pentagon, the iconic "War Room" from the climax of Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964). While drawing, he anatomizes the fundamental spatial metamorphosis that this center of power went through across months of intense collaboration with the film's director, Stanley Kubrick.
- Charismatic, erratic, egocentric, almost forgotten ... Sergej Tschachotin (1883-1973) is, like the times he so well personifies, a difficult man to describe let alone to understand. A scientist of great repute, a friend of Pavlov and Einstein, a revolutionary and pacifist, dedicated opponent of fascism. His private life was also extraordinary: five marriages, eight sons. Four sons, separated by great distances tell the life story of their father. Looking between the time of the Russian revolution and the beginning of the 21. century Sergej's great-grandson, Boris Hars-Tschachotin explores how their individual lives were intertwined. As in his life, the path of his urn was restless and unexpected turns. During the shooting Boris found Sergej's urn in the living room of his great-uncle Eugen.
