Christmas Eve, 1914. On a World War I battlefield, a momentous event changed the lives of soldiers from France, Germany and England.
Academy Award®, Golden Globe® and BAFTA nominee for Best Foreign Film, JOYEUX NOEL (MERRY CHRISTMAS) tells the true-life story of the spontaneous Christmas Eve truce declared by Scottish, French and German troops in the trenches of World War I. Enemies leave their weapons behind for one night as they band together in brotherhood and forget about the brutalities of war. Diane Krüger (Troy), Daniel Brühl (Good Bye Lenin!) and Benno Fürmann (The Princess and the Warrior) head a first-rate international cast in a truly powerful, must-see film.
