CGiii Comment

Mrs. Weisweiller's Villa which was decorated by Jean Cocteau.
 
Cocteau was (apparently) head of the Priory of Sion from 1918 to 1963 - so, supposedly, his art is loaded with all kinds of symbolism.

It's not exactly the most gripping of short films but, because of the name Cocteau, it will always find an audience.
