Eye of Dawn
"Mata Hari was a spy for the French", "Mata Hari was a spy for the Germans", "She was not a spy but was a dancer, she was wrongly accused!"
There is more than one truth in this genre-breaking film.
How to reconcile the multiple faces of Mata Hari? It literally takes a village.
Eye of dawn is a docu-drama retracing the mythical steps of Mata Hari in a small village of the South of France. She walks the wall of a destitute building brought back to life through set design, projections and most of all through the inhabitant of the village who became both actors and witnesses to her tragic life.
After a few day in the UK to film with professional actors, the director, Mazaher Rostami, took his rushes on the road to La Jarrie Audouin (300 inhabitants) in southwestern France. There with the help of the villagers, he explored the life of "Mata-Hari" and the men who walk through her life.
