There are some films that leave a greater mark on us than others. Among them, The Battle of Gaulle, directed by Antonin Baudry, is divided into two parts: The Iron Age, which premiered on June 3rd, and I Write Your Name, in theaters since June 26th.
The Battle of Gaulle tells the story of a man driven by a deep conviction that he will never abandon: that of a free France. A dignified France, a France that does not give up, a France that resists and fights. Nothing came easy for him. He had to win and defend his legitimacy at every moment. His integrity, sense of honor, dignity, and incredible inner strength allowed him to overcome all obstacles. By rejecting resignation, Charles de Gaulle helped save France from a cowardice that could have tarnished its image forever.
