| Carl Theodor Dreyer made this film during the Nazi occupation of Denmark and, similar to the way Arthur Miller demonised the Hayes Code in his play 'The Crucible', DAY OF WRATH uses the larger narrative of witch-hunts to point out the paranoid obsession of the period. The story follows Anne, the wife of a much older and well-respected pastor. When Anne falls in love with her stepson, Martin, a devastating series of events is triggered.
