Please give this film a chance. I find it strange, to say the least, that difficult and intelligent films such as "Three Tales" seem to attract those IMDb reviewers who are incapable of understanding them. This is an important and complex cinematic journey which not only demands that the viewer pay close heed, but that he/she actually think about what he is seeing and hearing. Reich's operatic score is brilliant, but he has been producing fascinating pieces like this one for over 30 years. The director has fashioned a film which results in an absolutely mesmerizing counterpoint and complement to the Reich score. The three events in the film: the destruction of the Hindenburg, the obliteration of the isle of Bikini by nuclear testing, and scientists who discuss the cloned sheep Dolly (interspersed with a synthesized-speech robot which can learn from its environment), all bear powerful witness to the probability that we have not yet evolved far enough morally to deal with the consequences of what we can produce technologically.
A footnote: not many people are aware that Dolly was 'euthanized,' when she was about five years of age, I believe, due to morbid obesity, advanced arthritis, and severe gastrointestinal disorders.
