La filière

- Season 1

(1978)

An Allied plane is shot down near the Belgian border. Two Canadians, members of the crew, manage to jump from the aircraft. Joseph Tardy, the radio navigator, is slightly injured. Léo Crèvecoeur, the gunner, is unharmed. They hide their parachutes and try to find refuge in this region crisscrossed by the Germans .

The small troop continues its way on second-hand bikes. Leo adapts somehow to this means of transport. Here they are all in Valenciennes. But the cogs of the industry, which seemed so well regulated, creak: the team must go green for a few days to avoid the German patrols .

The route is complicated for the fugitives. Despite their boarding a train, they are very close to being discovered by Germans still just as suspicious. Their train is diverted by Lorraine.

It was in a convent that the fugitives found refuge. Marcel, for his part, delighted to finally be in Paris, has taken over his affairs. Tired of the atmosphere of the convent, Leo escapes to join Marcel.

An additional fugitive, Belleme, joins the group which takes the train, Gare d'Austerlitz, to "officially" make a pilgrimage to Pellevoisin. On the Quai de Salbris, the Germans are waiting to arrest them.

Pommier, local manager of the "sector" must order the dislocation of the group. The next meeting point is fixed. This will be the buffet at the Périgueux station that each will reach separately.

The whole team found refuge at the Château de Sauveboeuf. The only thing missing is Roger. The latter ends up arriving and explains to his companions the next stage of their flight. But his information diverges from that given by François.

The team traitor is unmasked. A tribunal is improvised to judge him with dignity. What to do with him? Opinions differ, but time is running out, the group must continue the journey towards the Spanish border.
