Voyage au bout de l'enfer (The Deer Hunter)

In 1968, three steelworkers from a small Pennsylvania town are called to serve in Vietnam, an experience that will change them forever. The lyrical scope of this historical epic is immense. A masterful storyteller of American history, Michael Cimino stood out by exploring unexpected narrative arcs, such as the psychological consequences of war, a topic rarely addressed at the time. Despite shocking part of the audience with its infamous Russian roulette scene, The Deer Hunter went on to win five Oscars.
