MICHAEL KOHLHASS

Michael Kohlhaas is a historical drama directed in 2013 by Arnaud des Pallières, an adaptation of the novel by Heinrich von Kleist (1810). The film was shot on the Sauveterre plateau and at the Boissets farm. The stark, cold landscape of the Causse blends skillfully with the atmosphere of the film. In the 16th century, in the Cévennes mountains, Michael Kohlhaas, a merchant, leads a happy life with his family. Until the day he falls victim to the injustice of a nobleman. Michael, a pious man, raises an army to reclaim his rights.
