From renowned French director Robert Bresson comes this spare and haunting version of the legend of Camelot. The story begins as the Knights of the Round Table return to Camelot after their futile search for the blessed Holy Grail. Lancelot (Luc Simon), the leader of the quest, is reunited with Queen Guinevere (Laura Duke Condominas), who begs him to become her lover. Convinced that his impure thoughts are the reason for his recent misfortune, Lancelot assures Guinevere that he will neither cease his search nor become her lover. However, when the jealousy of another knight, Mordred (Patrick Bernard), spurs rebellion in the land, Lancelot decides to remain in Camelot and fight until death for King Arthur (Vladimir Antolek-Oresek). Along the way, he accidentally murders his best friend, Gawain (Humbert Balsan), giving Mordred an added edge in their battle.Bresson's profound and original voice reaches an even higher level with this poetic study of the end of chivalry. He uses the familiar terrain of Camelot to address issues of loyalty, pride, and societal evolution in the world at such a crucial moment in history. Employing his deceptively simple style of filmmaking, Bresson creates another deeply moving work of art.
