Directed by Bruno Dumont
Produced by Taos Films, ARTE
A lyrical, faith-driven portrait of young Joan of Arc's spiritual awakening amid medieval France's suffering, told through intimate scenes and musical passages.
France, 1425. During the Hundred Years’ War, Jeannette, age of 8, looks after her sheep in the small village of Domremy. One day she tells her friend Hauviette how she cannot bear the suffering caused by the English.

Carried by her faith, she will become Joan of Arc.
