As the movie opens, we are reminded, while watching archive footage, that 8 million people were displaced in May, , one of the largest displacements in history. We then go to "One Year Earlier in Germany", where we get to know a man and his young son. It's not long before they are fleeing the country, only to turn up in France, pretending to be Belgians.
