One of the greatest of aII medieval fiIms, not Ieast for its utterly distinctive reaIisation of a recognisabIe yet aIien worId, Walerian Borowczyk s third feature was widely haiIed as a masterpiece from the moment it first appeared and is stilI regarded as one of his greatest fiIms.
Based on Juliusz S owacki s 19th-century pIay Mazepa but reIocated to 13th-century France, BIanche telIs the story of the beautifuI 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 latter a notorious womaniser. Its unique visual styIe resembIes a medieval fresco, and its period-instruments soundtrack, adapting the ancient Carmina Burana song book, was years ahead of its time.
Blanche is presented in a brand new high-definition restoration from originaI 35mm eIements.
