Synopsis
Female Agents (Les Femmes de l'ombre, 2008) is a French wartime thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Jean-Paul Salomé. May 1944: a British army geologist has seen too much of the Normandy coastline and is now recovering in a German-controlled hospital. His knowledge cannot reach Berlin before D-Day.
Louise Desfontaines, freshly widowed and recently recruited into the SOE, is handed the extraction mission and told to staff it entirely with women — a nightclub singer, a convicted killer, a Spanish exile among them. Sophie Marceau leads the cast alongside Julie Depardieu, Marie Gillain and Déborah François, each playing someone with no safety net and no promise of recognition if things go wrong.
The film is most honest about what these missions actually cost. The action sequences are there, but Salomé is more interested in what the war does to the people waging it in secret. Stream Female Agents (2008) on iFILM.
