Dunkirk follows the dramatic events in 1943 leading up to Operation Dynamo, where upon the British Army attempted to rescue its soldiers and allied troops from Occupied France as the Germans closed in. Seen from the dual perspectives of a jaded journalist in search of propaganda and a weary soldier desperately trying to give his troop some hope, Dunkirk never shies away from the brutality of war and the bravery of its soldiers.
