Description:

A man and a woman are flying high in the night sky of Paris seated on a small flying machine shaped as a fish. The “eyes” of the machine are its headlights, and many other similar-looking devices can be seen floating around as the couple flies past a police tower.

The caption reads in the original French: Paris la nuit.
