notre dame on fire (2023)
(NR) (Samuel Labarthe, Jean-Paul Bordes) On April 15 and 16, 2019, Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral catches fire, and men and women put their lives on the line to save the renowned landmark. This film relieves it with an extremely good editing, articulating and combining real actual scenes (even President Macron appears once) with fiction ones in such a realist sequence that we watch it, feel as if we were there present side by side with onlookers. We follow the work of firemen and other responsible persons doing everything possible to save the building. A fascinating and surprising movie.
