Synopsis

September 1944. the Normandy landings took place three months earlier. Paris is liberated, the allied troops are in Belgium. It was then, on September 5 precisely, that the deadliest bombardment of the war in France took place on the harbor. The result is up to the means implemented by the English air force: 3000 dead, the heart of the city razed, annihilated, without any military reason. Table Rase describes this forgotten murder that continues to haunt the city. Military archives, news of the time, intervention of English pilots, hypothesis of a French colonel, views of the port and the city before the war, and especially testimonies of survivors, the film goes around what remains of the event.
