Spiritual rapture and institutional hypocrisy come to stark, vivid life in one of the most
transcendent masterpieces of the silent era. Chronicling the trial of Joan of Arc in the
days leading up to her execution, Danish master Carl Theodor Dreyer depicts her
torment with startling immediacy, employing an array of techniques including
expressionistic lighting, interconnected sets, and painfully intimate close-ups to immerse
viewers in her subjective experience. Anchoring Dreyer's audacious formal
experimentation is a legendary performance by Renée Falconetti, whose haunted face
channels both the agony and the ecstasy of martyrdom.
