Napoléon by Abel Gance

Abel Gance’s Napoleonic epic in its previously unreleased and definitive “Grande Version.” After 16 years of an unprecedented collective endeavor in the history of the Cinémathèque française, the public is finally invited to witness firsthand a film unseen since 1927. A remarkable reconstruction led by Georges Mourier, accompanied by an original score composed by the talented Simon Cloquet-Lafollye and recorded by musicians from the RadioFrance orchestras.
