The peasant girl Joan of Arc was a national hero who emerged from the French anti-British struggle from 1429 to 1431. When the British army approached the fortress of Orleans, she led her troops to break through the enemy's siege, and fought hard to defeat the British army. Her heroic deeds are widely known, and she is known as the "Girl of Orleans". But it also caused the jealousy of the French aristocracy. At the Battle of Compiègne, she was betrayed and fell into the hands of the Burgundian rebels. The British attempted to exchange a lot of money for Joan of Arc. The film intercepts the historical episodes of Joan of Arc's upright and unyielding confrontation with judges in prisons and courtrooms. The main trial content is the issue of belief, and the main scenes of the Justice Square and the Marche Palace are used to compress the plot time into one day. Joan of Arc's elegance and heroism. The film continues to unfold as the heroine's physical and mental pain intensifies. In the end, Joan of Arc was taken to the square of Rouen, where she was tied at the stake and burned alive.

Aesthetics captures the narrative, the face captures the faith, pitching, solid color, tilting, all visual design is only to highlight the gaze of "faith", she is not only the Virgin/son of the religious language, but also the movie star system of later generations. We The obsession with appearance always carries traces of faith. With a little association, you can reach Anna Karina or Scarlett Johansson from her weeping or opening. Dreyer never photographed simulacra beyond the human world, but only the shape of the human world is full of burden and grace, fire, flying dove, crown. Roger Ebert commented, "Their faces are distorted because of fear of her courage."

A great work that shocks the depths of the soul. The characters are shown in close-up throughout the whole process, the perspective changes freely, and then the rare close-up is switched. The close-up of the protagonist's profile and the judge looking up at the camera form a sharp contrast, fully grasping the emotional story tension. Religious Baptism and irony, death is not another kind of rebirth, which has influenced many subsequent minimalist French films and directors!
