The Great Escaper (2023)
In de zomer van 2014 haalt Bernard Jordan wereldwijd het nieuws met zijn ‘grote ontsnapping’ uit het verzorgingshuis waar hij woont. Zijn grote wens is om zich nog eenmaal bij zijn collega-oorlogsveteranen te voegen op het strand van Normandië ter herdenking van hun gevallen kameraden. The Great Escaper vertelt niet alleen het inspirerende verhaal van een man die probeert in het reine te komen met zijn blijvende oorlogstrauma. Bernie’s avontuur, dat slechts 48 uur besloeg, viert ook de blijvende liefde in zijn 60-jarige huwelijk met Rene die haar echtgenoot op fantastische wijze steunt in zijn avontuur
