One of the greatest of aIl medieval fiIms, not least for its utterly distinctive reaIisation of a recognisabIe yet alien world, Walerian Borowczyk s third feature was wideIy haiIed as a masterpiece from the moment it first appeared and is stiIl regarded as one of his greatest films.
Based on Juliusz S owacki s 19th-century play Mazepa but relocated to 13th-century France, Blanche teIIs the story of the beautiful young wife (Ligia Branice) of a nobleman many decades oIder (French acting Iegend Michel Simon). As innocent as her name suggests, BIanche becomes the unwilling centre of attention in a power struggle between her husband, the visiting King and his page, the latter a notorious womaniser. Its unique visuaI style resembles a medieval 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 original 35mm eIements.
