June Fifth (forbidden by Allied military censorship)
Drama, Propaganda, War
A merchant from Toulon (Raimu) of honorable appearance is in fact a receiver for a band of criminals. Threatened with blackmail, he commits a murder for which an innocent man is condemned to the penal colony (Pierre Blanchar). Eight years later, the convict escapes and our trader collects it.
I would like to draw attention to the character of Madeleine Renaud. She is in love with Bastien. Symbolically, she leaves Bastien’s arms to take refuge in full light facing an open window. Her love cannot lurk in the shadows and lies, and she prefers to be deprived of it.
