About
You can stream A Matter of Life and Death (1946) on Artiflix with a subscription.
A British wartime aviator who cheats death must argue for his life before a celestial court, hoping to prolong his fledgling romance with an American girl.
Instead of a typical wartime drama, this film transports a pilot into a surreal, monochromatic courtroom where heaven operates with meticulous bureaucracy. The striking visual contrast between the lushly colored earth and the stark white afterlife creates a dreamlike atmosphere for this celestial debate.
