"Joan had always brought up vague ideas of Christian martyrdom and religious fanaticism but having come to know this Joan, I have come to admire and identify with a woman who is sure of her individual power," Director Cecile Keenan said."She is a self-motivated, empowered, modern woman and, as such, we should pay attention to her fight for individualism," she added.
