A + X + M =?, Alain Resnais' Last year in Marienbad has been described as a defining work of the French New Wave and one of the great, lasting mysteries of Modern Art.

This cinematic marvel describes a haunting relationship between a man and a woman who may or may not have met. The 3 main protagonists, never referred to by name, wander through a sumptuous château and the viewer is left to deliberate over the ambiguity of memory and the pursuit of an image.
