Description
A landmark in the history of gay cinema, MIKAEL is an emotionally charged story of love, loss and enlightenment. Carl Theodor Dreyer ("The Passion of Joan of Arc") delves into the relationship between a renowned artist and the young man who is the source of his inspiration. As the artist, Benjamin Christensen (a noted director himself) displays astonishing psychological depth. Dreyer's powerful vision has an accumulative impact that will profoundly move you. With live translation of German intertitles.
