Original description from deleted YouTube upload of the film:

Chris Marker died in 2012, but his online presence still hunts the world wide web. Fake avatars make sure his memory will never be forgotten, and his museum in Second Life is still up and running.
I sought out to make a film about something that does not exist anymore.
Chris Marker is nothing but a hologram. His eternal obsession with "The Invention of Morel" is the proof to it.
Join me on this endeavour!

I believe I made this film for 99 people. That's probably the number of people who will care about a niche film about the most niche aspect about the most niche filmmaker.
If this video-film will have more than 101 view, I swear it's a miracle!
