The Assault

(2011)Directed by Julien Leclercq88 min · RDrama, Action, Thriller
“Monday 26th December 1994. Marignane Airport.”

Thierry (Vincent Elbaz) is a GIGN operator who wants one thing from this job: to get home to his wife Carole (Mélanie Bernier) and their child. On December 24, 1994, four armed men take over an Air France Airbus at the Algiers airport with 227 passengers on board. Julien Leclercq drew on the real hijacking of Flight 8969, which sets a team of soldiers against the clock and against the fear of how much a rescue can ask of ordinary men.
