Synopsis

In 1956, Orson Welles directed "The Tragedy of Lurs," an episode of the television series "Around the World" that was inspired by the murder of a British family near the Dominici farm. The film was unfinished, but the French director Christophe Cognet recovered his materials and reconstructed the documentary.
