Thibaut,

it is not a (proper) EPS file.  On my Mac the command

	 file undisplayable.eps

returns

	 undisplayable.eps: DOS EPS Binary File Postscript starts at byte
	 30252 length 40741791 TIFF starts at byte 30 length 30222

google shows 32 results:

Make Photoshop export it to PNG or SVG for example...
