A forged 500-franc note is cynically passed from person to person and shop to shop, until it falls into the hands of a genuine innocent who doesn't see it for what it is - which will have devastating consequences on his life, causing him to turn to crime and murder... (Abramorama Films)

English Everything that exists must have a cause, and because the chain of causes cannot be infinite, there must exist a first cause. Some have used this well-known "proof" to demonstrate the existence of God. But what if instead of the traditional God, another deity sneaks in? Catholic Robert Bresson perfectly reveals what lies at the end of the chain of causes... His traditionally minimalist form suits this film precisely - that cold, slow, relentless, and hopeless submission to that deity that moves the world. And when a person does not submit to it, they can no longer demand anything from the world. Wouldn't everyone then become a murderer? ()

English Interesting form of this film, which seems to be without emotions, I like on one hand, but then there is the fact that the film simply didn't entertain me. There are interesting details that I appreciate and that entertain me, but then there is the whole, which simply didn't resonate with me and I was bored with it. I can't consider the film as exceptional in any way. ()
