De Gaulle – Résistance
Some wars are won by armies. Others by those who refuse to surrender.
De Gaulle – Résistance
In June 1940, as France collapses and signs the armistice with Nazi Germany, an unknown French general named Charles de Gaulle refuses to surrender. With no army, no official mandate, and no backing, he flees to London to launch the Free France Forces and convince the world that the fight is not over. Slowly, rebellious students, determined soldiers, and figures like Jean Moulin begin to rise up and join the cause across England, France, and Africa.
