Not a fan of French series either...I know, i know, I am just biased...we are re-watching This Is England '86 these days.
ReplyDeleteThis ain't a series, silly, but a movie currently airing in Frankreich cinemas.
DeleteUn film potente che restituisce dignità a una vicenda storica esemplare, trasformando una battaglia legale in un atto di umanità e memoria.
