Blavatsky
Duration: 0 h 0 m |
Helena Petrovna von Hahn, called Madame Blavatsky, was an extraordinary personality of her time, regardless of how we decide to observe her philosophy. This film does not praise her work; nor does it defy and debunk what she stood for, in spite the fact that she was one of the most controversial figures of the 19th century.
