    • Synopsis
    • Our historical documentary delves into the almost father-son bond between George Washington, leader of a victorious revolutionary army and the first president of the United States, and Gilbert du Motier de Lafayette, a hero of American independence and a figurehead of the early French Revolution. These two figures share a profound friendship, tested by three revolutions (American, French, and Haitian).
