Check out De Gaulle: Tilting Iron
June 1940. France collapses and signs the armistice. In the midst of the chaos, one man refuses to give up. Alone against the odds, this unknown general flees to London to save what remains of freedom. Without an army, without backing, without hope. But with one irrational conviction - France, his France, has not laid down arms. Taking the ultimate gamble, he seeks to convince the world that the battle for France is neither over, not lost. The first installment of this two-part story debuts at Cannes on May 20th, and arrives in movie theater on June 3rd.
