BİR İDAM MAHKÛMU KAÇTI

French Resistance activist André Devigny is imprisoned by the Nazis, and devotes his waking hours to planning an elaborate escape. Then, on the same day he is condemned to death, he is given a new cellmate. Should he kill him, or risk revealing his plans to someone who may be a Gestapo informer?

Undoubtedly one of the greatest films of all time, Robert Bresson’s A Man Escaped finds his cinema at its peak form of “cinematographic writing”–where the balance between sound and image are in complete harmony to deliver a gripping tale of life, resistance, and imprisonment during wartime.
