- Synopsis
- In 1963, Clouzot began work on a project called "L'Enfer", a tale of jealousy that leads to madness, and the filmmaker was promised all the time and resources he needed for the picture. However, while the director was meticulously prepared when shooting began, after only three weeks the production was halted and never resumed. Filmmakers Serge Bromberg and Ruxandra Medrea try to answer the question of what happened to a project so full of promise, a documentary which looks into the shadowy history of this lost film. Including interviews with members of the cast and crew (among them production assistant Costa-Gavras) and excerpts from the surviving footage (seen by the public for the first time here), the film tells the tale of how a great director ran afoul of his own demons while making a movie about a troubled man. In 1992 Clouzot's widow sold the script to Claude Chabrol who made the movie as L'enfer (1994).
