A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH

War pilot Peter Carter should have died when he bailed out of his bomber with no parachute, but Heaven failed to find him in the fog. He then falls in love with June, an American WAC. In heaven, celestial diplomacy tries to claim him as dead. Peter must go on trial a sumptuous courtroom in the clouds – that will decide whether he can remain on earth or not. A tale of extraterrestrial love, Powell’s favourite film.
