Wednesday June 19th, 1940 and the headlines in both the Evening Press and a special gratis afternoon edition of The Star announced the ‘Evacuation of Children’, instructing parents to register at schools that same evening.
Filmed and produced entirely in Guernsey by local talent, and cast with over 600 school children, teachers and over 100 extra islanders in the cast, this is a truly local production showcasing Guernsey history.
Join over 1400 people per night in the largest cinema screen ever experienced in Guernsey at the Sir John Loveridge hall to watch the premier of ‘a la perchoine’ – the movie, following the story of the Guernsey occupation.
