Great Arch, The

Inspired by a remarkable, near-mythic story, THE GREAT ARCH is a darkly comic and thought-provoking tale led by a captivating Claes Bang (The Square).

In 1982, President François Mitterrand (Michel Fau) launched an international competition to design the flagship project of his term: the Great Arch of La Défense. To the surprise of everyone, the commission is won by an unknown 53-year-old from Copenhagen, Otto von Spreckelsen (Bang). An outsider with only a few modernist churches to his name, the stunning submission – taking the form of a perfect white cube – becomes the talk of the capital.
