Danton’s Death

Cinematic storytelling powered by Moviepedia.

An avant-garde adaptation of the play by Georg Buchner about the last days of the Dantonists, representatives of the right wing of the Jacobins during the French Revolution. The director freely experiment with form and content, draws parallels with the present day and raises the question point-blank: why does the revolution, like the ancient Greek titan Kronos, always devour its children?
