The Verdict
Synopsis
WW2 is coming to an end. On the seaside, resistant fighters are captured and imprisoned in a basement. Within an hour, all of them will be shotâan hour of fear, of impossible dreams, of false hopes. Based on a Bernanos play, it sometimes recalls, by the subject of sacrifice (a sacrifice of an average human being is not an average one), "Dialogue des CarmĂ©lites," in which nuns, during the French Revolution, were guillotined because they would have betrayed their faith if they had accepted the new rules.
