The House on the Dune (French: La maison dans la dune) is a 1952 French crime drama film directed by Georges Lampin and starring Ginette Leclerc, Jean Chevrier and Roger Pigaut.[1] It was a remake of the 1934 film of the same title, which was in turn based on the 1932 novel The House on the Dune by Maxence Van Der Meersch. The film's sets were designed by the art director Maurice Colasson.

Synopsis[edit]

Close to the Belgian border, smuggler Sylvain and his lover Germaine give shelter to Sylvain's friend and fellow smuggler César who has killed a customs officer. The dogged Inspector Lourges is placed on the case, although he begins to develop feelings for Germaine.
