The Trial of Joan of Arc

Film Description

Based on the transcripts of the actual trial of Joan of Arc, Bresson's film is austere and methodical, balancing Joan's humiliation with her spiritual redemption. Featuring a remarkable cast of non-professional actors, the film portrays Joan's relentless interrogation and persecution by her captors in an almost documentary manner. Bresson transforms her oppression and suffering into a testament to her purity and spiritual liberation.
