June 1940. France collapses and signs the armistice. In the midst of the chaos, one man refuses to give up. Alone against the odds, this unknown general flees to London to save what remains of freedom. Without an army, without backing, without hope – but with one irrational conviction: France, his France, has not laid down its arms. What follows is a triumphant story of faith, audacity, and an unshakable quest for freedom.

Antonin Baudry has crafted a powerful and dramatic portrait of a man at the very center of a turning point in history, on his path to becoming one of the twentieth century's defining leaders. Simon Abkarian commands the screen as the titular General, leading a standout ensemble cast.

Filmography: The Wolf's Call (2019).
