The Truth about Dunkirk (2017 film):co-production between the Netherlands, U.K, France, U.S

Dunkirk is a 2017 English-language war film[4][nb 1] written, co-produced, and directed by Christopher Nolan. Set during World War II, it concerns the Dunkirk evacuation. The film is a co-production between the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, and the United States.

Nolan wrote the story with the intention to tell it from three perspectives – the air, land and sea. Efforts were made to create suspense solely through details, as the script contained little dialogue. Filming began on 23 May 2016 in Dunkirk, France, and was shot on IMAX 65 mm and 65 mm large format film stock by cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema.

Dunkirk is scheduled to be released on 21 July 2017 in IMAX.
