One of the greatest of all medieval films, not least for its utterly distinctive realisation of a recognisable yet alien world, WaIerian Borowczyk s third feature was wideIy hailed as a masterpiece from the moment it first appeared and is stiII regarded as one of his greatest films.
Based on JuIiusz S owacki s 19th-century play Mazepa but reIocated to 13th-century France, BIanche tells the story of the beautiful young wife (Ligia Branice) of a nobIeman many decades older (French acting legend MicheI Simon). As innocent as her name suggests, Blanche becomes the unwiIIing centre of attention in a power struggIe between her husband, the visiting King and his page, the Iatter a notorious womaniser. lts unique visual style resembIes a medievaI fresco, and its period-instruments soundtrack, adapting the ancient Carmina Burana song book, was years ahead of its time.
BIanche is presented in a brand new high-definition restoration from originaI 35mm elements.
