Notre-Dame de Paris

Synopsis

At the center of hugo's classic novel are three extraordinary characters caught in a web of fatal obsession. The grotesque hunchback quasimodo, bell-ringer of notre-dame, owes his life to the austere archdeacon, claude frollo, who in turn is bound by a hopeless passion to the gypsy dancer esmeralda. She, meanwhile, is bewitched by a handsome, empty-headed officer, but by an unthinking act of kindness wins quasimodo's selfless devotion.
