G-Day (2025)

(5.625) based on 4 votes
June 1944. Europe is torn apart by war, and preparations are underway for the Normandy landings. Denis Porte continues his daily work with dedication at a British military base... which is fake. His mission: to move fake soldiers around every day and thus deceive the enemy. In the Porte family, there is a tendency for fathers and sons to die as heroes for France. So there is no question of Porte taking the slightest risk for his mother. Looking after a fake base is the most she will tolerate for her son. But after meeting Sami, an Algerian doctor who dreams of meeting De Gaulle, they decide during a drunken evening to take part. They set off bravely (and with quite a few drinks under their belts). Except that they don't have the right date or the right place. Add to that a hero who doesn't want to expose himself to danger. On D-Day, or almost...

Operation Luchador

At the dawn of the Second World War, Nazism was extending its grip over South America. The Golden Angel, a Mexican masked wrestler, was recruited by the Americans in order to flush out the spies of the Third Reich and put a stop to their nefarious schemes. The Golden Angel’s assignments, still classified Top Secret and therefore absent from the history books, even brought him to a pivotal confrontation with Hitler himself. Inspired by the spirit of classic mockumentaries such as Woody Allen’s ZELIG and Peter Jackson’s FORGOTTEN SILVER, the film takes viewers on a unique version of the fight against the Third Reich, joyfully erasing the border between fiction and reality for the viewers who, taken on this unique ride, can’t help but ask: did this really happen?
