Horizon Perdu

Overview

From 1977 to 1980, Bernard Cadoux and Jean-Paul Lebesson regularly visited Stanislas Rodanski at the Saint Jean de Dieu hospital, where he had been staying since 1954. These conversations gave rise to a film: Horizon Perdu, whose title references Frank Capra's Lost Horizon (1937) and Shangri-La, the mythical city where the story takes place.
