FRONT LINES

Behind the major historical events of the Mediterranean world

Synopsis

The 20th century is rich in conflicts, crises, and disruptive events that still have repercussions today, be it an obscure French-British Agreement that shaped the Middle East or the Indochina War that was the prelude to the Vietnam War.

This series aims to retell contemporary history episodes that might have been forgotten but shouldn’t be ignored because of their significance.
