Movies | “The Battle of Gaulle - Part 1: The Iron Age”

June 1940. France collapses and signs the armistice. Amid the chaos, one man refuses to give in. Alone against all odds, this unknown general flees to London to save what remains of a dream: freedom. Without an army, without support, without hope. But with a wild conviction: France—his France—has not laid down its arms. He makes one last gamble: to convince the world that the Battle of France is neither over nor lost. Reality is stubborn, and proves him wrong. But little by little, resistance fighters operating in the shadows, rebellious high school students, and determined soldiers begin to rally around him in England, France, and Africa. Their faith, their audacity, and their thirst for freedom defy a history that seemed, after all, to have been written in advance.
