Premise
The biographical film follows Jean Moulin, who is dropped into Nazi-occupied France to help bring the Resistance groups together for Charles de Gaulle. Even though he tries to stay hidden, he is eventually betrayed and handed over to the Gestapo in Lyon, led by the brutal Klaus Barbie. Moulin is tortured again and again but never gives in.
