About

Able Gance's 1938 remake of his 1919 film J'Accuse. This is hard to come by and is presented here in a low quality VHS rip in French with English Subtitles.

After surviving the bloodshed of World War I, soldier Jean Diaz sacrifices his dream of being a poet for a far more important pursuit: ending war. Turning to science, Diaz dedicates himself to creating technology that will make combat obsolete. Bankrolling the project is tycoon Henri Chimax. But, when World War II becomes imminent, Chimax sees an opportunity to bolster the French war effort -- and swipes Diaz's pacifist invention so it can be used by the army.

The 1919 silent original can be found here.
