A French Village: Season 5

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

In June 1940, German military forces invade the fictional village of Villeneuve, near the French-Swiss border in the department (province) of Jura, France. The village is put into disarray by the occupying German military, which quickly takes control of all aspects of Villeneuve life, including the subjugation of the local government and police. During the invasion, many residents are either killed or wounded, but the survivors attempt to rebuild from the carnage and try to make sense of the German occupation and the new order that has descended upon their village…

Once again I’m proud to be the first to post a review here and commend this fantastic series. Despite 5 seasons’ worth of episodes the quality remains high, the drama intense, the acting superb, the realism—-well, very real, and the plot twists and turns unpredictable, engrossing and fully believable. This series is so superb that I’m going to buy the 6th season in the French-only language release, even though my French isn’t that strong, and hope that enabling the French-language subtitles, and having a French-English dictionary handy, will enable me to absorb the 6th season, because frankly I don’t want to wait for them to release it with English subtitles!A series to recommend heartily and unreservedly to anyone who is interested in history, and indeed to anyone who is interested in human drama.-Arbitrator
