But these happy images should not obscure the harsh reality of the retaliation against the collaborators and the reconstruction to come. This film powerfully relates the political and economic history of France from 1940 to 1945. Let us remember: on May 12, 1940, the German air force attacked France via Belgium, from the 13th, the Germans defeated the French defense and enter Paris declared an "open city" on June 14. On June 17, Marshal Pétain asked for an armistice signed on July 22: the Vichy regime and the Occupation began, in other words, the dark years. Written by INA See less
