An award winning film by Christian Taylor
Christian Taylor’s documentary is a touching tribute to D-Day and the longstanding friendship and bond between France and America. This film unveils the untold stories of the Norman citizens who lived through German occupation and the Allied liberation of Normandy, France on June 6, 1944. Dany Patrix is the “Girl” who wore a dress made from American parachutes and is the thread that weaves the story of bravery and heroism of the American GIs who liberated France together. To this day, the people of Normandy appreciate the sacrifices that were made for their freedom and celebrate each year to honor their heroes and remember. Why must this story be told? Simply, to ensure that the brave actions of those heroes are never forgotten.
