La Révolution française (1989)
Film Synopsis
This comprehensive history of the French Revolution begins with the meeting of the États Généraux in June 1789 to discuss the country's debt crisis. The storming of the Bastille on the 14th July marks the start of the revolution and the transfer of powers from the reigning monarch, Louis XVI, to a newly established republican assembly. The imprisonment of the king in August 1792 marks the beginning of the second phase of the revolution, a reign of terror...© James Travers
