For his 4th immersive work, François Vautier returns to the roots of VR film in the trenches of the First World War. A mise en abyme of the human condition in the face of History.
For his fourth immersive creation, François Vautier returns to the fundamentals of virtual reality with this film made in real-life conditions. A 360° film in the heart of the trenches of the First World War, in search of a shred of humanity at a time when soldiers must go to the front. With its monumental production and life-size set, Battlefield demonstrates the power of images when confronted with an immersive story. François Vautier bathes his story in a dark, melancholy atmosphere, returning to what he does best: a visceral proposition, bordering on the unreal, that makes this war story a timeless portrait of Man facing History.
