Au Hasard Balthazar
A deep masterpiece from one of the filmmakers in the history of theatre, Robert Bresson's Au hasard Balthazar follows the Balthazar as he is passed from owner to owner, some type and some unkind but with motives beyond his understanding. Balthazar, whose life parallels that of the first protagonist is quite a beast of burden, suffering the sins of humankind. But even though his powerlessness, he accepts his fate nobly. During the unconventional approach to makeup, sound, and storyline of Bresson, this simple narrative becomes a forward about transcendence and purity.
