Storyline

Le dernier métro 1980

During the years when World War II devastated the city of Paris, Marion, a successful actress, is married to theater owner Lucas. Their lives filled with theater and art are plunged into the harsh realities of war. Lucas, a Jewish man, faces the difficult reality of being Jewish during World War II. While Lucas believes that the only way to survive is to leave the country, Marion thinks they can continue their lives and make art by hiding him in the theater without closing it. François Truffaut’s influential work on art and the realities of life, The Last Metro, captivates with the extraordinary performances of two master actors, Catherine Deneuve and Gerard Depardieu.
