Laissons les morts engloutir les morts dives deep into the somber and heavy atmosphere of 15th century France, capturing the final days of Joan of Arc with a raw and unflinching lens. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing the weight of her trial to settle in, as we witness the moral and ethical complexities faced by the characters involved. What sets this film apart is its striking use of practical effects to recreate the bleakness of the era, enhancing the oppressive tone. The performances, especially that of the actor portraying Joan, bring a haunting authenticity to her desperation and conviction. It’s a film that doesn’t shy away from the darker corners of history, providing a thought-provoking reflection on faith, betrayal, and the human spirit.
