That IS the film.

What's remarkable about it is how small the file size is.

It's 256 bytes!

To explain how impressive that is, the entire film itself is about 58 times smaller than a screenshot of the film's first frame. You could fit the entire film on a 1.44mb floppy disk over 5000 times and still have some space left over.

How?

Normally, videos are made up of a series of images with some information in between that says which part of an image goes where.

But this film contains no image data. It only has some math for drawing boxes at different brightnesses at different times.

And if you want boxes of different brightnesses then boy is it a good movie
