Synopsis
Based on a series of abstract, metaphysical gouaches that evoke Giorgio de Chirico and René Magritte but which could only have come from Borowczyk’s paintbrush, The Games of Angels evokes the horror of both death camps and Gulag. Unforgettable images combined with an astonishing soundtrack by Bernard Parmegiani, result in one of the most affecting films in the history of cinema.
