What happened to the 1928 Passion of Joan of Arc, a silent film directed by Danish visionary Carl Dreyer, who read the actual transcripts of Joan of Arc's British trial for his film? Why did the film end up in Dikemark Sygehus, a mental hospital located on the outskirts of Oslo, Norway? Who found the film, and why does this black and white piece continue to captivate audiences to this day?
