Produktbeschreibung
A forged banknote leads to a tragic chain of events that culminates in murder, in Robert Bresson’s superb swansong. Based on a short story by Tolstoy, L’Argent is Bresson’s uncompromising last word on sin, chance and salvation, themes that he explored with such power and force throughout his 40-year career. Shot in the director’s imitable austere style, the film won the Best Director prize at the 1983 Cannes Film Festival and is widely regarded as one of his great masterpieces.
