LA PASSION BEATRICE

BERTRAND TAVERNIER
France - Italy      131 m.
Synopsis
An unusual film in Tavernier's career, not so much for its historical background of wars between France and England during the Middle Ages as for the almost Shakespearean- like violence of the characters who emerge straight from the countryside. Socially taboo subjects: incest, rape and patricide are foremost in this film with a young girl as the main character. It's Tavernier's first film with his son Nils and is dedicated to Riccardo Freda.
