En mai, fais ce qu'il te plaît — France
The 2015 French film follows the civilian exodus of May-June 1940 — eight million people fleeing south on foot and by cart as German tanks advance, an event known simply as 'l'Exode'.
The Great Exodus (l'Exode) of May-June 1940 saw between six and eight million French and Belgian civilians flee south ahead of the German advance — the largest mass movement of people in European history at that point. The roads became choked, blocking Allied military movements. Many refugees were strafed by Luftwaffe aircraft. The film is set around Arras and Cambrai in northern France.
