Strange and surreal short film which features several games and maps (in fact, it was made to promote a Cartography Exhibition). It is subtitled "Une fiction didactique à propos de la cartographie" and wrongly translated into English as "Snakes & Ladders": although we see the board of this game briefly, it is the Game of the Goose the one which has more prominence in the movie.
Impossible not to find several similarities between this film and Le pont du nord.
