A work of poetry and dark humor, LES VISITEURS DU SOIR is a lyrical medieval fantasy from the great French director Marcel Carni (CHILDREN OF PARADISE). Two strangers (CHILDREN OF PARADISE's Arletty and LA DOLCE VITA's Alain Cuny), dressed as minstrels, arrive at a castle in advance of court festivities and it is revealed that they are actually emissaries of the devil himself, dispatched to spread heartbreak and suffering. Their plans, however, are thwarted by an unexpected intrusion: human love.
