The second part of Antonin Baudry's two-part series devoted to the figure of the General follows De Gaulle in his quest for freedom and sovereignty for France.

Liberté follows a series of parallel struggles, all aimed at establishing Free France – against the German enemy, of course, but also against the American Allies. It is January 1943, and preparations are underway for the Casablanca Conference, which could well seal the fate of a France placed under Anglo-Saxon control. But de Gaulle (Simon Abkarian) believes in a free and sovereign France, and he is prepared to pursue this seemingly fanciful hope by confronting, on Moroccan soil, both General Giraud (Thierry Lhermitte), a leader backed by the United States who has no qualms about working with the Vichy regime, and President Roosevelt (Campbell Scott), who has a firm vision of a Europe with redrawn borders.

Filmography: The Wolf's Call (2019).

The film is included in a double-feature ticket with the film “De Gaulle – Résistance.”
