Henri-Georges Clouzot's Inferno 2009 (7.3)

In 1964, Henri-Georges Clouzot's production of L'Enfer came to a halt. Despite huge expectations, major studio backing and an unlimited budget, after three weeks the production collapsed. This documentary presents Inferno's incredible expressionistic original rushes, screen tests, and on-location footage, whilst also reconstructing Clouzot's original vision, and shedding light on the ill-fated endeavor through interviews, dramatizations of unfilmed scenes, and Clouzot's own notes.

Often reduced to a handful of romantic clichés - that of a young messenger on a bicycle or a fighter posing with her machine gun slung over her shoulder - women have long remained invisible in the history of the French Resistance. And yet, in a defeated, humiliated country deprived in part of its male population, women were the first to react and initiate a spirit of resistance. Through five individual destinies, this collection highlights the crucial role played by women between 1940 and 1944.
