Before he made Napoleon, Gance gave the world this profoundly moving and audacious anti-war film, which was already in production while the First World War continued to devour soldiers. The uncut, original release version will be presented here in a restoration featuring a synchronized score by the Robert Israel Orchestra. Supported by the Cultural Service at the Consulate General of France, the Institut français and Mission Centenaire 14-18.
