The Story:
In post-war France a brilliant young doctor (Raymond Rouleau) devotes every waking hour to battling cancer and saving countless lives.
His world collapses when he learns he is himself stricken with the same incurable disease and chooses to shield his loving wife (Micheline Francey) and friends by turning cold and cruel.
Vertiges (1947) spins a haunting medical drama of sacrificial love and hidden torment under Richard Pottier’s direction.
