Le rouge et le gris, Ernst Jünger dans la grande guerre

6

Result of twenty years of patient and passionate collection, constituting a fund of several thousand images taken on the German side and most of them unpublished, The Red and the Gray offers an adaptation of the famous war story by the German writer Ernst Jünger, Storm of Steel. Confronting History, photography and writing, carried here by the voice of Hubertus Biermann, the film documents the passage from the old world of 1914-1915, the Red of the 19th century, to the Gray which replaces it, that of "the inhabitant of 'a new world'.
