The Man Who Laughs

This loose adaptation of the Victor Hugo classic shifts the story to Italy and back in time, with the deformed protagonist meeting Lucrezia Borgia instead of Queen Anne. Also, Gwynplaine is renamed Angelo (Jean Sorel) with his disfigurement represented by a single broad slash across his mouth, crude yet convincing. The story (not credited to Hugo) is a swashbuckler pitting the disfigured acrobat against the henchmen of the Borgias.

Bestowal

The film depicts where life can begin and where it can lead for a filmmaker, and in the journey between existence and non-existence, it illustrates where the mind and heart can reach through the medium of cinema. The mentioned filmmaker, as ever, surrenders himself once again in the depths of the forest with his camera, adding a new film to his life and beliefs. For him, cinema and the life he reaches through cinema touch upon all the emotions and thoughts that can be questioned in the world where he resides and is tested by its absence. The nature he reaches thanks to this journey is something presented to him from nothingness. Unable to decide what to do with this nothingness, the filmmaker, ultimately makes a film that he can present to people with the nature bestowed upon him. The resulting film essentially belongs to a day of the man who roams in the forest and points his camera at the trees.
