He brings with him a new detective and starts explaining the strange story of Alan Schaeffer. A man who recently insisted that one of his creations was coming to kill him, but had no evidence to back up his claim. Surrounded by security that reportedly sees nothing, nobody can help Alan Schaeffer and so the police moved on. Now the Detective is back at this mansion with a horrible, brutal crime scene and no suspect in sight.

It follows Death as she moves among the population to accomplish her task: touching those whose "last hour" strikes after that moment.

我不想像一只鸽子那样，在你们的欧洲生活。

Today's story takes place in distant California, but it could just as easily happen here. It tells of dangerous intrigues, accusations, and slander that can have a devastating effect on anyone's life... Phillip Madison has a happy family and a thriving medical practice, with a reputation as one of the best surgeons around. However, an enemy suddenly appears in his almost idyllic life – the psychopathic Brittany Harding, who begins to blackmail Madison – accusing him of rape and threatening his marriage and professional reputation. When her blackmail fails, her aggression knows no bounds. One night, an accident occurs and the doctor is charged with causing bodily harm to two random pedestrians, resulting in their deaths. The investigation and subsequent trial aim to prove his guilt or find another culprit. Is the doctor innocent, and will he manage to clear himself of the false accusations and charges of manslaughter?

This is one of the most beautiful and mysterious shorts committed to film. Visuals are more like a moving painting than anything else I've seen. There are certainly elements of films like City of Lost Children in there, but taken to another level. Visually only Casshern comes close to this, for sheer depth of vision. It just shows you what is possible for people to achieve with some imagination. Too many film makers seem to want to use digital effects to create the most realistic looking sets/ extras/ stunts, when they should be concentrating on making it look as interesting as possible.
