Bon Voyage (1944) is a short French language propaganda film made by Alfred Hitchcock for the British Ministry of Information.

[edit] Plot

The film depicts the escape of a downed Royal Air Force pilot through German-occupied territory. Although the film is short (26 minutes), and generally only of interest to Hitchcock completists, it is interesting for its use of multiple viewpoints of the same events, a technique not unlike that used by Akira Kurosawa in Rashomon (1950) and Fernando Meirelles in Cidade de Deus (2002).
