'The Third War' ('La Troisième Guerre'): Film Review
“We are at war,” French president François Hollande declared in the aftermath of the Charlie Hebdo and Bataclan terrorist attacks of 2015, rallying his country in a battle cry against an enemy that remained hidden in the shadows of everyday life. During the months and years that followed — in fact, till this very day — the French army took to the streets in a mission known as “Opération Sentinelle,” protecting the metros, sidewalks, train stations and outdoor markets of the country’s major cities.
