Synopsis . (00:06) The young peasant girl, Joan of Arc (Jeanne Calvière), has a vision of the saints Catherine and Margaret and later the archangel Michael who announce her mission: to save France devastated by the Hundred Years' War. (00:20) Joan returns home where she attempts to explain herself to her parents, Isabella and James (Jeanne d'Alcy and Georges Méliès), and her uncle. The relatives try to persuade her, but Joan leaves for Vaucouleurs to meet the governor: Captain Robert de Baudricourt. (00:58) At the entrance to the town, two soldiers would like to prevent the young woman from passing, but Joan manages to persuade them and get through.
