In that vein, Thom Andersen's "Edweard Muybridge, Zoopraxographer" (1975) might be considered an experimental documentary about a sort-of-scientific subject, but all of this departs from the original inquiry about films inspired by astronomy and physics, probably because there are very few. Early Belson and Thorsten Fleisch's "Energie" are poetic evocations of those ideas, but oblique evocations only.
