1940, THE DEMARCATION LINE

A 1,200 kilometers long fracture

Synopsis

Between June 1940 and March 1943, a 1,200-kilometre-long demarcation line splits France in two. In the North, the zone occupied by Hitler's soldiers, in the South, the zone administered by the Vichy regime of Marshal Pétain.

This film lifts the veil on the shameful mistakes of the collaboration but also on the most courageous and noble acts.
