Dunkirk

2017 | 107 min | K-16 | action, drama, war

In May 1940, the German war machine had driven the British and French forces to the shores of the English Channel at Dunkirk. The beach offers no shelter and no mercy. The enemy bombards the troops, and hope for the evacuation of over 300,000 men is slim as ship after ship sinks and the enemy draws closer by the day. On land, young soldiers cling to hope, while in the air, Spitfire pilots do their best to provide cover. Across the sea, civilians sail to rescue the stranded soldiers in an unprecedented operation. The evacuation of Dunkirk was one of the most significant events of the early stages of World War II and had a major impact on the course of the war. Director Christopher Nolan weaves together three stories unfolding on different timelines, which ultimately converge. The struggle for survival is portrayed through the experiences of infantrymen awaiting evacuation, the crew of a rescue vessel, and the fighter pilots above.
