The first adaptation of a novel by Charles-Ferdinand Ramuz, who wrote the libretto for Stravinsky’s Histoire du soldat, Rapt features a nuanced performance by Dita Parlo and makes extraordinary use of mountain landscapes, contrapuntal sound, and an original score by Arthur Honegger.

The 35mm prints are courtesy of La Cinémathèque française and La Cinémathèque suisse, with kind support from the Consulate General of Switzerland in New York.
