Description: | Easter Island. A record of a Franco-Belgian expedition to the remote island in the 1930s, the film gradually takes on a more symbolic quality as it proceeds, and has been seen by some writers as a metaphor for the troubled condition of Europe in the mid-1930s. Narration in French, without subtitles, but the library makes available an English translation of the commentary. |
