J'accuse!
(1938)
After serving in the
trenches of World War I, Jean Diaz recoils with such horror that he
renounces love and personal pleasure to immerse himself in scientific
research, seeking a machine to prevent war. He thinks he has succeeded,
but the government subverts his discovery, and Europe slides with
seeming inevitability toward World War II. In desperation, Diaz
summons the ghosts of the war dead from the graves and fields of
France to give silent, accusing protest.
