friends in their mid-twenties are reunited more or less by chance and
spend several days together in the area where they grew up. Each

matters. Others have come back to relive their adolescence and to
find love...
Continental Films, quality cinema under the Nazi Occupation
At the time of the Nazi Occupation of France during WWII, the German-run company Continental produced some of the finest films made in France in the 1940s.
