Saint Joan
A Brilliant Triumph!
Directed by Otto Preminger
Produced by Wheel Productions, United Artists
A solemn historical epic that grapples with faith, martyrdom, and the tragic collision between divine conviction and political expediency.
In 1456, French King Charles VII recalls the story of how he met the 17-year-old peasant girl Joan of Arc, entrusted her with the command of the French Army, and ultimately burned her at the stake as a heretic.
