The Confession (French: L'aveu) is a 1970 French-Italian film directed by Costa-Gavras starring Yves Montand and Simone Signoret.
It is based on the true story of the Czechoslovak communist committed leftist Artur London, a defendant in the Slánský trial.[1] Gavras did not intend the film as an anti-communist film but as a plea against totalitarianism and Stalinism.[1][2]
