Big solar storm on January 23, 2012 seen by NASA's SOHO

Mises à feu du film et corps foudroyés dans le cinéma de Lang. Conférence d'Emmanuel Siety
Le titre original du film Les Trois Lumières, réalisé par Fritz Lang en 1921, est Der müde Tod : la mort lasse.

C'est de cela qu'il sera question : corps foudroyés, mise à feu du film... et ce qui s'ensuit...
Emmanuel Siety est maître de conférences en cinéma à l'université Pari
