A Soviet documentary surveying the liberation of France, from D-Day landings and partisan actions to the entry into Paris. Edited at TsSDF from footage shot by French, British, American, Soviet—and captured German—cameramen, it blends frontline combat and city-by-city liberation with portraits of French cultural landmarks and daily life returning after occupation.
