Synopsis:
Guilt-ridden after recklessly crashing his car and leaving his daughter severely disfigured, celebrated plastic surgeon Dr Gennesier becomes obsessed with restoring her beauty by transplanting a new face onto her mutilated features. Aided by his devoted assistant Louisa, young women are lured back to his home to become unwitting "donors" in his horrific procedures.

Although too much for many critics of the day to stomach, Franju's masterpiece is now considered to be one of the greatest, most influential and disturbing horror films ever made.

Special Features:
Extract from 'Cinema of our time - Georges Franju: Visionary' by André S. Labarthe.
