What happens

Vaincre ou mourir (lit. 'Vanquish or Die') is a French film co-directed by Paul Mignot and Vincent Mottez, produced by Puy du Fou Films and StudioCanal, released in 2023. The feature focuses on the War in the Vendée through the prism of Vendée general François Athanase Charette de La Contrie. The film was mostly poorly received by the press but audience reviews gave the film high praise. The film attracted approximately 300,000 spectators in nine weeks. Historians specializing in the French Revolution note few factual errors but point out that while the film does not repeat counter-revolutionary propaganda, it facilitates the narratives of such organizations.
