La maison des bois / The House in the Woods (1971) 3 x DVD9
The story begins in a rural French village during the First World War and ends in Paris after the Armistice; throughout, the characters are ravaged by the dangers and dislocations of war. The spectres of death and destruction are constant.

The house in question belongs to the Picard family — Albert, a gamekeeper for the local nobleman, and Jeanne, who cares for their two teen-age children and three foster children left abandoned in the war.

The film focuses on the family's day-to-day life while the children pass into adolescence, the adults betray each other, and the world around them destroys itself.
