Beau Travail

Claire Denis' masterful film explores the activities of a small company of French Foreign Legionaries, and the conflicts that arise within the group. "This film communicates predominantly through gestures and looks rather than through dialogue or plot," says Nashashibi, "and, like plays within plays, the final scene encapsulates the whole work in a single physical activity so satisfying and complete, it's stunning."
