The making of Dunkirk
Description
A behind-the-scenes look at director Christopher Nolan's gripping action-thriller Dunkirk , which brings to life one of World War II's most pivotal events. Set during World War II, director Christopher Nolan's ( The Dark Knight Trilogy , Interstellar ) much-anticipated new film tells the story of the evacuation of British troops from Dunkirk, France, in a daring endeavor that saved them from certain defeat at the hands of enemy forces.

Featuring interviews with the director and key department heads and filled with never-before-seen imagery from the shoot, plus concept art, storyboards, and other amazing visuals, The Making of Dunkirk is the ultimate insider's look at one of the most anticipated films of 2017.
