TV tip: The Maginot Line

If you like concrete, you'll love bunkers. The Maginot Line is a giant in this regard: thousands of underground bunkers along the French border, from Belgium to the Mediterranean. Celebrated as a technical masterpiece and glorified as impregnable, it also represents the trauma of the French defeat in 1940. The documentary paints a picture of a building that is as fascinating as it is controversial. HERE you can watch the documentary "The Maginot Line" on ARTE online.
