Short summary

This film is a narrative journey from Dante's own hand, through the worst of the afterlife, Inferno. It is a chronological descent to the deepest of Hell, circle by circle to the exit into Purgatory. It features most of Gustave Dore's illustrations and excerpts of the 1911 feature film "L'Inferno".

The whole film is in black and white, which matches Dore's illustrations as well as the excerpts from L'Inferno.

This film is offered for free online to educational institutions worldwide that teach 'The Divine Comedy'.

UCLA Italian Department was the first educational institution to adopt this film as a guide for students learning The Divine Comedy.
