Among the witnesses to his humiliation is Georges Picquart, who is promoted to run the military counter-intelligence unit that tracked him down.

This is a great movie. Fascinating time period 1890s.

This shakes up the French Army while at the same time as the European and World order is changing:

- The Franco-Russian alliance is formalized (1894)

- Fashoda incident between France and Britain in 1898 right after Britain (Anglo/Egyptian force defeats the Mahdi and reconquer the Sudan and then go south and run into a French force at Fashoda claiming the same territory.(France and Britain agree to settle their colonial differences as this Dreyfus Affair is seriously affecting the French Army and this leads to alliance between France and Britain, the Entente Cordial formalized in 1904. Russia and Britain sign an alliance in 1910).

- The Spanish American War of 1898

-Failed Italian war on Ethiopia in 1896 (France and Russia arm the Ethiopians)

Great movie. Gives you an almost physical sense of being there - in that world and that now forgotten story

[leahrabinsky]

Amazing movie, Polanski the director is a genius, the actor portraying Dreyfuss looks like two drops of water like the real one, great work .

[donsarde]

A very sad film. It portrays the evil of men at their worst. Poor army officer, he did not merit such unjustifiable treatment.

Dreyfus Affair！I have great interest on this spectacular event in which numerous heroes fighting for truth and justice was bornt, such as Emile Zola, Picquart, and even Leon Blum. This event had a very profound impact on the history of the French Third Republic. This movie really agitated my blood.

[Loganichols]

Wonderful movie. I just came back across it after not remembering the name forever

[agargul]

Isn’t this ironic that a story about standing up for what’s right despite being cancelled got cancelled in U.S. and U.K.?

[tomaszb.]

Wonderful movie. I wish to see it again. Thank you, Mr. Polański.
Dziękuję, Panie Romanie!

[philonetic]

Somebody is burying this film. It's not even on streaming sites.

[aleksandraradziszewska]

[angelusvastator]

Roman Polanski is the definition of separate the artist from art

[historicrecord]

I can;t wait to watch this dramatic movie of this important event in history

[corcaighrebel]

Is it possible to get this film anywhere? Wish I could purchase via Youtube or something. Grew up reading about the Dreyfus story in school and would like to see this depiction.

[steveryan]

Great film which foreign distributor will be making an English subtitled version so I can import it? Whoever subtitled this trailer should do that!!

[KiljiArslan]

I think alot of Americans should study this event and compare it to its current predicament.

[marnixmaximus]

I really wanna watch this movie. Does anyone know how it is even possible? I don't even see torrents for this
