EditJ'accuse (2019)

January 1895 was the most terrible time for Captain Alfred Dreyfus, a young officer in the beginning of his very promising career. He has been wrongly accused of spying in favour of Germany and sent into exile to the Devil’s Island, a penal colony in French Guiana. Later, the facts proved that another officer was the real spy but Captain Dreyfus’s life and reputation were already badly affected by the scandal. Colonel Georges Picquart was in charge of the military counter-intelligence of that case. When he was informed that someone continue to hand over sensitive information to the Germans, Colonel Picquart decided to prove Dreyfus’ innocence, which put him in great danger and almost costed him his life. Director and Co-screen writer Roman Polanski has selected an excellent cast to tell this extraordinary story, based on tragic true events.
