Synopsis:
A car with two occupants runs over a policeman and is pursued, but then climbs a building and travels through sky and space before plummeting into the courthouse where the plaintiff is giving testimony.

Clearly inspired by Méliès, this uses some similar imagery and trickery, but begins in more realist vein.
