### **ABOUT THE FILM:** *In French with English subtitles.* Rohmer, best known as the doyen of French naturalism, veered about as far as you could get from his signature style with this adaptation of Chrétien de Troyes’ 12th-century Arthurian romance *Perceval, the Story of the Grail*, in which Fabrice Luchini’s Perceval crosses a deliberately artificial landscape of cardboard castles and fiberglass rivers, all built in the Epinay Studios near Paris, in search of the Cup of Christ, his journey periodically described by a singing chorus.
