Monstrous Acts

In 1440 Frenchman Gilles De Rais was burned and hanged for the suspected deaths of almost 400 boys. A powerful re-imagining of the last days of one of history's most horrifying killers and his search for redemption through the love of another tortured soul. Poetic, erotic and moving, this visually stunning story of two men who, faced with their impending deaths, find love and forgiveness in each others' arms.
