Germany occupies the Netherlands, Belgium
and Luxembourg.

Germans invade the Netherlands, Belgium
and Luxembourg.

At three o'clock this morning, the Germans
crossed the Dutch border.

The great battle has begun.

A 420-kilometer front.
The major battle in the west begins.

On land, fighting has not yet
started. Germans in Dutch,

Belgian, British, and French uniforms
are dropped behind the lines.

The great battle
from Liège to the Moselle.

From Antwerp to Sedan
the enemy advances along the Meuse.

Germans attack en masse.
Many casualties.

Paris and its surroundings are now
military zones.

Soldiers have never been
so shocked before.

Roosevelt urges Mussolini
not to expand the conflict.

We are ready for any sacrifice to
win, says President Reynaud.

Hitler is taking a high risk,
targeting the heart of France.

On this fine May morning in 1940,
the French army withdrew.

Under the best conditions,
according to the General Staff.

Never had an army withdrawn
so well and so quickly.

The spokesperson of the General Staff
did not call it positive,

but it was close to that.

The Seventh Transmission Company
had a different view on the retreat.

Where has the Seventh Company gone?

Adapted and improved by BuStEl - 2026
mastodon.social/@LumiereEnSousTitrons.

This way.

Quick. To the forest.

Camouflage.

Colonel Blanchet for you, Captain.

You go there, two to that side.

Fifth group, take your post.

Eglantier here, Eglantier here, speak.

The Seventh Company,
Colonel, Captain Dumont.

Finally.

Eglantier? With Pruimpje. Say, what
are you eating there, man?

My beer.
The company was attacked by Stukas.

We take cover in a
forest, I have everything

camouflaged and
leave. Over to you.

No. Stay in the forest until tonight and
wait for my orders.

We need a lookout post on 6-22.

I'll call you in an hour. Over.
- Understood. Over and out.

Quickly to the general's central post.
Don't shake, it makes it foam.

Send three men with a phone
to the hill by the path.

If they see anything, they call and return.
- Understood, Captain.

That's no longer news.

Chief.

Chaudard.
- Yes, Lieutenant?

We leave only tonight.

Take two telephone operators and a radio
and go to the hill above.

Report what you see and come back. Hurry,
you know what to do.

Yes, Lieutenant.

Pitivier, did you hear?
- Yes, Chief.

Grab the equipment,
we need to lay the line.

Tassin.
- Yes, Chief.

Get your radio and food for three men.
- Yes, Chief.

We gather at the radio vehicle.
- Good, Chief.

Do you hear me? We are at De Gouden
Leeuw in Conchères, General,

what are your orders?

Window closed.

Pruimpje here. Pruimpje listening.

Hortensia here. With Pruimpje? Speak.

We are at De Gouden Leeuw in
Conchères, General, what are your orders?

Pruimpje? Speak.
Pruimpje?

Pruimpje listening.
- What's that noise on the line?

It's war, General.
What are the orders?

Withdraw to Sarville? And wait for
your order? Understood. Over and out.

We withdraw to Sarville.

Not so fast.

Such a wall, lucky people who live here.

And?
- Closed.

Hop.

Do you have a good view up there,
Chief?

No chatting, climb.

They could have left the key on the gate
when they left.

You're right.

Damn.

It is calm here.

Take your position here.

Road blocked.

Turn right.

What time is it?
- Ten to nine.

Everything is calm. We can eat.

Yes, Chief.

Hello? Hello? Can you hear me, buddy?

Hello, Carlier? Pitivier here.
It's done. We are in position.

Understood. The men are on the
hill, Captain.

Excellent. Tell them they will be relieved
this afternoon.

Do not touch.

Telephone wire.

Good, then we'll be back by four o'clock.
Say, buddy,

guess what I'm sitting on?

What is it?
- It's Pitivier, Captain,

he's on the previous mayor.
- Excuse me?

They are at a cemetery.

Cut through.
- Major. Tire tracks toward forest.

Turn off the engines.

Tell the captain everything
is calm. Over and out.

Establish radio contact with the
fuel supply.

Yes, Captain.

To the table.

If we were left alone, I would
take a nice nap.

Chief. Are you coming?

No, bring it here.

Keep your weapons at hand. Yes, the
rifles in bundles, within reach.

What did you say? Not now,
the state of the vehicles.

Eglantier is listening.

Supplies? I'll report
it to the captain.

With Eglantier, Eglantier.

E-glan-tier.

E-GLAN-TIER.

If it weren't war,
we'd be enjoying ourselves here.

From your sister?
- Yes.

From when?
- 1912.

Not your sister, the letter.
- From April 18, 1940.

What does your sister say about the war?

That her boss said the
Germans would never attack.

Because the Maginot Line was there.

Sharp guy, your sister's boss.

Look, the chief has a letter too.

Probably the bills from
his iron store for March.

Damn.

The Krauts.

Krauts? Where?

Downstairs. A convoy.
- Grab my cup.

Hello?

Code word. E-glan-tier.
- Eglantier?

Decoding now.

And?
- I don't get it. The line is dead.

There must be a break somewhere.

Your cup.
- Never mind, we have to go back.

Grab your box.

The Company is hidden,
let's pass them.

The captain said: warn them.

By the time we arrive, the
Germans will have passed.

Not if we're quick.
- I'm sick of it, sick of it.

Major.

We're eavesdropping, Major.
- Set up the speakers.

Form up.
Disembark.

There's your break.

It's happening, chief, we
are being captured.

Get out of here.

Captain Dumont.

Surrender with your men.

You're surrounded.

Resistance is useless.
Come out of the forest to the road.

And throw your weapons in
the ditch. You won't have much time.

Second group: with me. Quickly.

Don't follow the wire, damn it.

For God's sake, stop the clatter.

What is it?

Nothing broken?

No. Keep going, chief.

Quick. Forward.

Time?
- Ten to twelve.

Watch out. First see
what awaits us.

Shall we sit, chief?
- Yes.

Look, my shoe is broken,
from earlier, when I fell.

We also need to find some food, chief.

In this farming town, we
cannot shop anyway.

They're everywhere, those bastards.

We're not staying here, too dangerous.

First eat at a farm,
then no more hassle.

We join a unit, any unit.

And what do I do with this, chief?
- With what?

The phone.
- You take it, of course.

Why? We can't use it anymore.

Can't use it? That
phone isn't broken.

But there's no wire left.
Who would we call anyway?

You're not leaving any gear behind, right?

We might as well throw our
rifles away and dress as

a village priest, but
the war isn't over yet.

I didn't mean that. It's just...
- I understand.

But if you leave military gear
around in wartime…

Understand?
- Ah yes. Then they know where you are.

Good, then we go now.

No, better that way.

Pruimpje calls Eglantier.
Pruimpje calls Eglantier.

Pruimpje for Eglantier.

Eglantier?
- Yes?

Eglantier for you, Colonel.

This is Pruimpje.
Eglantier, I've thought it through.

Fall back to Sarville.
German troops block the road.

Go through the Machecoul forest.
You can hide there.

I know that forest; you
can easily get lost. Understand?

Understood. We'll have a
cognac and then leave.

A cognac? Am I
speaking with Eglantier? Answer.

No, not really. This is
Infantry Commander Von Kurtel.

But it doesn't matter. Stay
where you are, we're coming.

So now I'm left alone,
with my wife and one day laborer.

But what will you do if the
Germans occupy the place?

The farm is in the middle of
the field, so we're safe.

The Krauts are too busy
chasing after you.

At most they'll stop
to pee and get a drink.

The three of you can't
stop them anyway, boys.

We did our best, but
the high-ups failed.

That may be, but the
low ranks fail too.

In '14 we held out. We suffered
heavy losses, but we held firm.

And what do you do in civilian life?

I slaughter animals in
the Nice slaughterhouse.

And that accent, where does it come from?

Corsican father and Sicilian
mother, that's how you get it.

Especially since my mother
doesn't speak a word of French.

And he's a street sweeper?
- No. I'm a municipal worker.

In La Roche-sur-Yon.
- Municipal field worker.

And then? They have to be here too, right?
- It was just a joke.

I have a hardware store in Vesoul, but I
prefer selling kitchenware.

Pots, pans, especially pots.

Do pots sell well?
- Certainly. Just last year alone.

Hey, little soldiers, come out.

I don't know where they are, General.
Von Kurtel is on the line.

I told him that too, General.

Thank you, ma'am.

So you're the only single person here?

I was briefly married ten years ago,
but it didn't last long.

I went to live with my older sister,
who had also been married.

And that didn't last long either, in Nice.

Wine or cider?

Cider gives me diarrhea,
so we have to hurry.

You'd better go through
the Machecoul forest.

No one will see you there. Five
kilometers further, across the fields.

Goodbye. Thanks for your hospitality.

You're welcome.
- Thank you.

And don't get caught. I was a POW in '17,
not fun.

Besides, they'd even
miss soldiers like you.

I'm getting tired, Chief.
- Me too.

The forest.
- We're not there yet, sleep here?

Yes. Tomorrow morning, at dawn, we move.

Chief? Can't we stop here?

Yes, we're looking for a place to sleep.

I'm so fed up, completely fed up.

Attention.

Lights out. Put out cigarettes.

Over here, quickly.

Over here, a bit faster.

You're not from the Seventh Company.
Where are you from?

Escaped a POW column yesterday,
caught again this afternoon.

Why escape? We're supposed to be freed
in a few days.

No kidding. If we had known that,
right, Gustave?

Of course. They'll even carry you on their
backs if you get hurt during the march.

You don't think the Germans
will take you home?

Exactly, Grandpa. Keep sleeping
and sweet dreams.

Yes, that's a big store. And next to you,
is that your wife?

Yes.

Ah, that's your wife. She looks very
distinguished, Chief.

Her father was a teacher, hence.

That appeals to customers. I always say:
the great thing about being self-employed

is that you're your own boss. Want to
stop to eat

or something else, you can. Unlike
in a factory.

Yes, but in a factory you have
fewer responsibilities.

That's true.

But you also earn less.

Are you paid per piece?
- Yes.

The more broken, the more profit?
- Yes.

As a single person you can save
quite a bit.

And your sister works too.

I give her money every month for my
food and laundry.

As if staying at a hotel.
- Exactly, yes.

But at a hotel I don't have to worry
about time or slippers.

Time and slippers?

Yes. I must be home before eleven
in the evening.

And wear slippers.

She's very strict about that.

For the floor.
- Yes.

Damn, always slippers on?

That would drive me crazy.
You not, Chief?

She's a housewife, that's all.
Keeps everything tidy.

My wife is the opposite.

She's a true outside woman.

Always gossiping with
friends, never home.

But I don't have to wear slippers.

See?

Boys, let's hit the hay.

Tomorrow we start marching.

Is that thing sturdy?
- It will hold for months.

Coming, Chief?

Here I am.

Good night, boys.
- Good night, Chief.

Good night, murderer.

Good night, street sweeper.

Where's Pitivier?
- No idea, Chief.

Maybe he had to go urgently.
- Yes.

We should start moving.
- Yes, Chief.

Pitivier.

Pitivier.

You can't be serious.
Pitivier.

Pitivier.

What are you doing there? We looked
everywhere.

I was washing. The
water is lovely. Join me?

If the Chief comes, trouble's coming.

He can't be mad because I washed, right?

And the water refreshes too. After all that
marching.

Can you stand?
- Look.

See? Come in.

We still have to wash.
Just a minute.

Tassin, can you do this too?
Look.

Still watching?
Wait, I know a better one.

Tassin?
Where are you?

Slippery here, huh.

Tell me, what are you doing there?

Washing, Chief.

The water is lovely, huh Tassin?
- Yes, Chief.

Lovely, once you're in.

Lovely or not, you
must get out. Move!

A rabbit, sir.

Clever, very clever.

But you fell in yourself, sir.

We have nothing.
- I just said: a rabbit, sir.

That's enough. You shouldn't
have made me turn back.

Mud is slippery, you know that, right?

Strange, that sir. He slips
and we are blamed.

You are quite a team. That
won't be dry for another two hours.

And what should I tell Paulette?

We'll never catch up this way.

But since you're wet anyway, sir,
you might as well go for a swim.

Right, Tassin?
- Yes, it's really refreshing.

Swim, swim, it's
war, boys, don't forget.

While we're sitting here,
others are fighting.

But even if we're not there,
they do it, sir.

I'm sure it would do you good.

Especially with all your
responsibilities and such.

That's the point. It's my
duty to leave,

not to go swimming.

A refreshing dip for the sir.
A refreshing dip for the sir.

A refreshing dip for the sir.

You swim well, sir.
- Oh la la.

I used to swim better.

But it's always the same.

You couldn't want better, right?

You didn't see yourself. Oh la la.

To swim like you, sir

do you hold your hand like this,
or like that?

Your hand forward and outward.

Am I doing it right, sir?

Talk to the men,
it will cheer them up.

Are you okay?

Carlier, okay?
- Yes, captain.

What do you think will
happen to us, captain?

We'll be prisoners of war, boy.
- Where, captain? In France?

In France? That would surprise me.

The clothes. Quick.

It would be a shame if
the Germans saw us.

From such a height, sir?
- Absolutely.

We hang everything to dry on the rack.

Our underwear will
dry quickly, right Tassin?

Oh yes.

Another rabbit, sir.

There are so many here.

Do you happen to have wire?

Not too far, boys. We
leave in half an hour.

No, we only go that far, sir.

Half an hour, the sir
won't be dry that fast.

He's far too soaked for that.

There.

Catch a rabbit in half an hour,
I doubt it.

Catch rabbits with a snare?
That's usually at night.

Maybe there's a
nearsighted rabbit around.

I'll tell you something.

A whole day walking in this heat.

We drag ourselves along.

Really stupid.
Where are we walking to?

Look.

That guy has guts.

There. That will teach him.

Forward, into the barn.

Look, sir.

And what happens up there,
did you see that?

Up there? Where up, sir?

The Germans shot down a French plane.
- Bastards.

What do we do with the dandelions, sir?

I don't know, put them in a bowl.
- Ah yes.

Sir, we thought about
the marching.

From a military point of view.

The further south we go,

and since the war isn't
over, as you say,

the smaller the chance that the
enemy will find us.

Right, Tassin?
- What?

If we're here, and
they pull back again.

Then we are like a forward post.

Understand, sir?

And as long as the situation
doesn't improve.

We are like a thorn
in the Germans' side.

Hey, Tassin?
- Yes.

Say, don't you think that...

That's enough.
It will never dry this way.

I'm getting dressed.
And we leave. Understood?

Yes, sir.
- Of course, sir.

I'll be your forward post.

Socks.

Like a thorn in the side.

They're still wet.
- Want your shoes too?

How do you expect me to march without
shoes? On my hands maybe?

Ah, that's true.

Marching without shoes won't work.

Attention. Do not leave ranks.

Understood?

Forward.

That's the wrong way.
Mess.

The Germans have boots.

They don't need to rush as if
carrying Christmas presents.

That's right, sir.

I'll say something, sir.

With such stupidity, you can
lose a war.

Time to get dressed.

And crack. There they are, all of a sudden.

My little gift.
- It's still over there, chef.

Go get it.
- Yes, of course.

And you, hand me my shirt.
Quick.

Wearing a damp shirt, chef,
you could get sick.

That's my business.

Damn it.
- What now?

Remusain is just a hamlet,
but there could be Germans there.

Better find a farm out
in the open field.

Here. And if they can't
mend my shoe,

bring nails and a hammer.

Keep that in mind.
- That's why I'm going there.

Try to bring something back too.

Nosy.
Straight ahead, you said, chef?

Fifty meters further down the path.
You can't miss it, straight ahead.

Four kilometers round trip,
so back in an hour and a half.

Yes, chef.
See you later, chef.

Germaine.
Coming down?

I'm coming.

All dressed up. Do you think my son
will come back from the war tonight?

I can't go to the village
in my birthday suit.

You would dare.

But it's more because important people
are around, right?

No, Pyram, you can't come.
Stay.

Nobody home?

I'm sure it's occupied, chef.

There was even soup on the stove.
- What kind of soup?

Couldn't see.

If you want, chef, I can come back tonight.
- No, tonight I go myself.

Silly, huh.

And then?

The first was easy. I was high,
behind him, he low, in front of me.

And the other?

The other was reversed.

No way.

Watch the path, chef.
Loose roots everywhere.

That's how Pitivier fell.
- I know.

And after?

Then I could sit on the ground.
Soft landing.

Julien couldn't do that...
- What do you know about it?

I mean, that soft.

Softness isn't his strong suit.

Maybe because softness has no
effect on you.

That depends.

Then I started walking, and here
I am.

Soon I'll lose my sole too.

Now that's hunting.

That reminds me. I should have
warned the chef about that dog.

Outside the grocer, the village is empty.

You stay here.
Go check, Germaine.

No, I'm too scared.

You never know, may I go inside?

Of course. If danger threatens, escape
through the window by the garden.

Germaine. Hide this somewhere.

Tell me, what are you doing there?

I came looking for food, and...
- Lie down, Pyram.

I came for food.

Food?

Yes, for me and my men.

Your men? Where are they?

In the woods, with my company.

Invasion or no invasion, the war
isn't over yet, miss.

Of course not. And you are fighting
in the woods of Machecoul?

Yes.
- I see.

Follow me.
I'll see what I can do for you.

Your dog, is it always on the farm?
- Always.

One isn't yet, if I go back.

A French soldier coming for food
for his men.

In the woods.

Ah?
- Hello, miss.

It's ma'am.

Oh, sorry.
Hello, ma'am.

So you're fighting in the woods of
Machecoul?

Well, fighting, we're more like a
kind of outpost, you see.

Just in case...

The Germans retreat.

Crack. Then we're there.

To stop the retreat.

No, um, the pincer, you know.

The pincer?
- Yes.

I ask only because...

According to the latest reports,

the Germans are already thirty kilometers
south of Machecoul.

Really?

They don't waste any time, huh.

Not really, no.

If I understand correctly, you're thirty
kilometers behind the German front line.

Waiting for them to turn back?

Exactly.

For now, at least.

Of course we won't wait for years.

I can believe that.

Especially since they can
retreat elsewhere.

Exactly.
- They haven't come this way,

so why would they retreat this way?

Retreating troops, you see...

I came back on foot from the front, via
the center.

And I was transported eastward
in a truck.

And we sang on the way there.

How many of you make the pincer?
- Three.

Uh, three, plus Glimou, Sautra, Chabouteau.

There are nine of us.

You are very curious.

There have been Germans in the village,
disguised as French soldiers, so...

Ah right, the fifth column, no.

Don't worry, we're not that type.

I defended a cemetery with my squad,

with grenades and everything.

And then my company was captured.

Right before my eyes.

We did what we could,
but with just the three of us.

Nine of us, in short, we pulled back...

Step by step.

And we took position
in the Machecoul forest.

In case, as I said,

they turn around and, crack.

We catch them.

Perfect.

I'll see what I can find for nine men.

For ten men, madam. If that's not too much.

I want to join the pincer.
- Come on, Germaine.

And the forward post and the rest.

Sergeant Chaudard, 106th
Transmission Regiment, 7th Company.

Rest on site.

Lieutenant Duvauchel.
My plane was shot

down this morning over
the Machecoul forest.

Perhaps you saw something
from your forward post?

That fight with those two
Germans, was that you?

I thought they killed you, lieutenant.

As you can see, I'm alive.

I'm really lucky.

This morning I escaped death,

this afternoon I end up in this house,
where they welcome me warmly,

and, while we are
technically in enemy territory,

thirty kilometers behind
the front line, I find tonight?

A handful of French fighters
in a forward pincer position.

You just have to be lucky.

Yes, that is real luck.

And you must be thrilled
to meet an officer, right?

And your men will be happy too.

I suppose so.

They can't wait to throw
themselves into battle, I've heard.

Bravo. They will fight
with all their heart.

And what's that?

That is... uh...

There's one.

The chief will be quite pleased.

Yes, but now we have to kill it.

- Hand it over.
- Oh, of course.

These will fit.

What do I owe? Never mind.

- Really nothing?
- No, forget it.

Alright then, thanks.

Goodbye, madam and madam.

Goodbye, madam, thank you for everything.

Good luck.

And don't get ahead of our fighters.

- Goodbye, lieutenant.
- Goodbye, madam.

He forgot his scarf.

Lieutenant. Your scarf.

You don't waste time, lieutenant.

Never. Come on.

And chief, what do you do in civilian life?

Hardware sales, lieutenant.
Mostly pots and pans.

Ah. My father has a pot factory.

Oh? What brand does
your father make, lieutenant?

Duvauchel, of course.

Of course, that name rings a bell.

I sell Duvauchel.

Well, I'm the son.

- Unbelievable.
- No, but.

And your store is part of the French
Kitchenware Organization, right?

Yes, yes. The F.O.K.

My father founded it. After
the war, I become director.

If we survive, of course.

Exactly.

Well, have you ever... What a small world.

This hardware store, the
chief is really tired of his store.

Like I'm fed up with my wife, and
you with your sister and her slippers.

So...

I think...

And since we don't
know how the war is going.

We're not leaving right away.

Blow.

What was your name again?

Chaudard, sir director. Louis Chaudard.

- From Vezoul.
- Chaudard.

I know your name from
somewhere, Chaudard from Vezoul.

I remember now.

My father mentioned you.

Yes?

I think so, yes, your
business isn't doing well, huh?

No, this year wasn't great.

Last year neither.

No, last year neither.

Here's the chief.

This is the moment. Bring up the herbs.

Pay attention.

No joking, chief.

I might drop everything.

Did you remember the salt?

Watch out, damn it.

What do you get now? My fire is already
so weak.

That rabbit is just asking to be caught.
Right, Tassin?

Tassin?

The advanced post.

Yes, lieutenant.
- Where are the six others?

Three wasn't enough for the pincer?

Your names?

Private Tassin.
- Private Pitivier.

Lieutenant Duvauchel. From now on, you
are under my command.

At ease.

The lieutenant was shot down this morning
over the forest.

I thought he had fallen.

But that wasn't the case.

So here he is.

And the lieutenant
is also my director.

I mean: the father of the lieutenant.

He's basically the owner of my shop.

Sir, the director.

Where are your weapons?
- There, lieutenant.

There, by the ammo.
- And the phone, lieutenant.

In wartime, you never leave
equipment behind, even if...

It's fine.
- Since when are you here?

Since last night. The company was
captured yesterday morning.

We've been walking all the time.
This morning Pitivier lost his sole.

Here, shoes.
- Thanks.

Hang that rabbit back over the fire.
- Yes, lieutenant.

It should blow, lieutenant.

Go on, blow.
- Yes, lieutenant.

When do you want to leave again?

Early tomorrow morning, lieutenant.
- Early tomorrow morning.

Will it take long?
- Ten minutes, lieutenant.

In wartime, you can do a lot in
ten minutes, right, chief?

Yes, lieutenant.

Have a good drink, for example.

You should head to Montanville.

The Germans weren't there yesterday,
so maybe not today either.

Thank you, Father.

Go on, quickly.

And keep praying going downhill.

Ready?
- Yes, lieutenant.

Attack.

Why did the chief bring that guy
along?

I don't know. And that rabbit was small.

Sorry, lieutenant.

My phone, it doesn't work anymore.

There's no wire left.

I can't leave it behind, right?

Hey, lieutenant?

Even if it doesn't work,
something like that could betray us, right?

Betray? How? What use is
a broken phone?

Yes, I know that.

So, even if some people say,
that chief is

that military material is sacred,

that phone should go in the ditch, right
lieutenant?

Of course.

No idea, general.

The seventh company was probably
captured.

Where to? Montanville?
We're retreating to Montanville.

Good, general.
Goodbye, general.

Retreat to Montanville.

Not so fast.

A German wrecker, for
their tanks.

Are we ready?

What are you doing there?

Filling our canteens.

Where are you from?

It's been full of Germans here for
three days.

We are trying to move our front line.

You're still far from that.

Don't stay here. If the Germans come,
you're in trouble.

And I already have enough trouble above.

Do you hear me? You must leave.

Don't worry. We're going.

The army doesn't get
much support, lieutenant.

I slipped, chief.
- Help.

Are you crazy?
- Stay calm.

If the Germans find them,
they'll kill us.

And burn the village.
My wife is giving birth.

Take them. Make them disappear,
anywhere, just make them disappear.

It's a girl.

It was the only option.

Yes, lieutenant.

You caused a mess, you.

I slipped, chief.

Do we go far with those two, lieutenant?

We leave the village and drop them
two kilometers into a forest.

I wish we were already there.
- Then don't slip.

A Kraut on a motorcycle.

We can't turn with
those trees along the road.

Quick, quick.

Smile, you win the war, damn it.
- Yes, chief.

Lend me your wrench.

Are you lending me your wrench?

A wrench.

Thanks.

Your wrench.

May I, lieutenant?
- Go ahead.

Bravo, Pitivier.
- Thank you, lieutenant.

We were lucky, I must say.

Do you know how a cannon works?
- No, lieutenant.

Figure it out.
- Yes, lieutenant.

Do you want to use it, lieutenant?
- You never know.

The pliers.

Where did they go?

Who?
- The Germans.

None for us, at least.
- No, the two in the car.

Where to now?
- Towards Montanville, lieutenant.

Great. There will surely be fighting.

We'll dump the Germans there.

Get ready, we're throwing the Germans out.
- They're gone, chief.

Excuse me?
- They must have fallen out.

But you were supposed to hold them.

What's done is done.
We're not going back to fetch them.

Sir.
- What do you want, brave warrior?

Something to eat, if possible.
- Can't. All gone.

And that then?

Ah, that?

Hello, gentlemen.

Good day. Can we buy something to drink?

Drinks? Of course.

A nice rosé. And gingerbread.
- Thank you.

No, no. You're welcome.

What a scoundrel.

Hello, gentlemen. Something to drink?

We want red wine.

Of course, gentlemen, with pleasure.
Red wine.

Indeed, chief, a real scumbag.

We also want food. For four men.

Quick, quick. We're in a hurry.

This is how you get served fast, chief.

That's dessert. Cake.

I want food.

Can of sausage. Understood?

Immediately.

But gentlemen.
- Watch out.

I'm getting angry.

The chef, down there.

Shoot fast with the cannon in the shop.

No, no. I'm coming.

The cannon. I don't even know how it works.

Do you prefer dry sausage
or garlic, lieutenant?

Doesn't matter, but hurry.

What do you want, chief?
- I don't care.

For me, it must be garlic sausage.

Order two with garlic.

There's no garlic sausage.

Do you have any with garlic?

Garlic?
- My friend wants garlic.

Go get it, MIT lòòk.

Immediately.

Otherwise: "boom".

I also brought bread.

That's kind.

Now: watch out for maneuver.

Careful. Move aside.

We are maneuvering.

Heil Hitler.

Make it Heil Hitler.

Yes.

Heil Hitler.

Heil Hitler.

Heil Hitler.

Heil Hitler.
- Heil Hitler.

Heil Hitler.
- More?

Heil Hitler.
- More.

Heil Hitler.
- More.

Heil Hitler.
- More.

Heil Hitler.

Heil Hitler. Hahaha.

Ready, lieutenant?
- One moment.

I want more sausage.
- No. We must be careful.

Oh. Our buddy.

What are you doing here?
- Well, have you ever?

And what are you doing here? With those...
- The helmets.

Well, stealing a German
truck, unbelievable.

Ah. It's war, buddy. You
either join or stay out.

Tough. I would never dare.

It wasn't really stealing.
- Alright.

Here comes the lieutenant. This is
Carlier, lieutenant. Who also escaped.

Just like us.

Rest here, friend.
And, bravo.

That was nothing, lieutenant.

But deliberately killing two
Germans and stealing their truck.

That's impressive.

Yes. We are really brave men.

Come on, let's go. Try to
get that cannon working.

Are you going to shoot at the Germans?
- Depends, right, chief?

Yes, depends. We're not really
looking for them, right lieutenant?

Of course not. But if
the opportunity arises...

Then it must be a good
opportunity, right chief?

Exactly, a very good one.

If the captain saw you like this.
- Yes, he wouldn't believe his eyes.

He said you were slipper heroes.
- Excuse me? Slipper heroes? Us?

Slipper heroes? We killed
a few and stole their truck.

And a cannon.

And it might not be over yet.
- Not over yet?

We're not going around
stealing trucks forever, right.

Of course not.

Private Pitivier says
we can hit the Germans

before we reach our troops. Nothing more.

Is that what you wanted to say?
- Well, uh...

May I sit here, Lieutenant?
- Of course.

Thank you, Lieutenant. And don't worry,
if you fight, I'll keep low.

Right. Better keep low,
because...

Otherwise the fun's over for us.

The priest said
the Germans hadn't

occupied Montanville
last night, Lieutenant.

Excellent. We'll circle Montanville
and then head south.

In the tow truck, Lieutenant?
- Of course.

We went through a lot for that
tow truck, right?

Good.

Montanville is straight ahead,

but we need to follow the main road
for a bit.

We'll do that. Everything okay up there?

We'll check, Lieutenant.
- We'll check.

Faster, move ahead.

Make way. Let us through.

We need to cross that road somewhere.
Duck, here we go.

In 400 meters, turn right,
Lieutenant.

Hey there. Always straight.
Move forward, don't stop.

This is taking so long.
- The civilians are stopping.

Mom. Mom. I'm hungry.
- I don't have food for you now.

In two hours we'll reach your uncle,
then you'll get food.

If he hasn't run off himself.
- Mom, but I'm hungry now.

Here, take it.
- Careful, sometimes poisonous stuff.

Stay away from that.
- No, go ahead, take it.

It's good. I'm a dad too.

Take it.
- Thank you.

See? They say a lot about the Germans,

but there are good
people too, like these men.

They might have preferred the
garlic sausage.

We need to turn here.

Is that cannon working yet?
- We're trying.

That's odd.

Colonel.

They changed tactics. The
tow trucks go first.

I think I understand the cannon,
Lieutenant.

I think it's something...

Automatic.

Not so fast.

The first German tanks occupy the
roads eastwards, Captain.

So it's best to go via Thouvain and
leave the road at Plaimboeuf.

Other gendarmes will assist you there.

The signal. Quick.

The signal. Hurry, get ready.

Gentlemen, weapons please.

That's one of ours. I'm going
to borrow a few cigarettes.

French.

Frenchmen stopping a German tow truck?
Strange.

Tassin. Grab the rifle.

Heil Hitler.

We are French. We took
the tow truck.

Is it serious?
- Yes.

We need to find a doctor.

There's a village, Lieutenant.
- Let's go there.

Thank you, ma'am.

Men. Buddy can make it. I'll take care
of him.

Thank you, ma'am.

We'll make those Germans pay.
Trust me.

Look, chief.
- Damn.

And, chief, when do we make
the Germans pay?

He's right.

I see nothing.

Get ready, rear.

Finally. You came to help us.

Lieutenant, the cannon can't turn.

Maneuver.

Is this okay?
- A bit more that way.

Better now?
- A bit more there...

Good now?
- Just a little more...

That's it.
Get ready.

Fire.

Wait a moment.

Bravo.

That's one.

If only buddy could see this.

That's big.
- It's too much.

Hey, what's happening over there?
- Frenchmen.

Okay, let's go.

Straight ahead, chief.

They're from the seventh company.

Tell them to get out of here.
I'll handle the rest.

Where are you taking us?

To Germany. That way no one is jealous,

the German soldiers are with you,

and the French soldiers with us.

Where did the seventh company go?

June 1944.

Get ready, boys.

You jump in five minutes.

Ready?

I slipped, chief.
