fREE ON YOUTUBE Carl Theodor Dreyer - Day Of Wrath


FREE ON YOUTUBE (DU FINDEST DEN GANZEN FILM FREI AUF YOUTUBE) Martyrdom and suffering are the themes of Carl Theodor Dreyer. Thus he created some of the most poetic and terrible horror films of all time. Day Of Wrath is about the witch hunt in the 17th century. Anne (Lisbeth Movin), the priest's wife, is accused of hiding a witch. And was Anne's mother already a witch? And what connection does that have with her own marriage? Anne falls in love with her stepson and confesses it to the priest. He suffers a shock and dies. Now Anne herself is accused of witchcraft... Any time that takes the work of God as justification for murder is a terrible time. In the name of God, women are tortured and burned. Not by hysterics. By people who are sure to serve the righteousness of God. They are Protestant people with callous faces. But behind them lies infinite suffering. Day Of Wrath does not need to argue for or against witchcraft. Instead he leads us into the great darkness of the human soul.
