The Long Long Holiday (Les Grandes Grandes Vacances) is a French animated series broadcast in 2015 on France 3, which tells the story of the German occupation of France during the Second World War through the perspectives of children in Normandy.

In September 1939, Colette and Ernest are welcomed by their maternal grandparents in a fictional village named Grangeville (Based On Actual Village Name Vrangeville-Sur-Mer), near Dieppe in Normandy. The short vacation becomes semi-permanent when their father goes off to fight, following the mobilization of France to fight the invading German Army, and the poor health of their mother, required to leave to be treated for tuberculosis in a sanatorium in Switzerland. The two little Parisians discover life in the countryside during wartime, including occupation, Resistance, deprivation, but also life with friends.

The ten-episode mini-series (sometimes shown as five episodes, including on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video) was created by Émile Bravo (graphic design), Paul Leluc (director), and Delphine Maury (author), and produced by Les Armateurs Cyber Group Studios. Olivier Vinuesa and Alain Serluppus assisted Delphine Maury at the beginning of the writing on the narrative arc, then Guillaume Mautalent and Sébastien Oursel became co-writers on the whole series, along with Timothée de Fombelle, who also lent a hand on the arc of the ten episodes. Syd Matters composed the music for the series.

In 2016 the show won Best Children's TV Program by the Paris Radio and Television Club.

[mictoonanimation]

The show makes me wanna live in ww2 as a kid like Colette because of the fascination on seeing 2 planes fighting in the sky.

Just looks so cool

I'm surprised this video hasn't been blocked by Cyber Group Studios because including footage of this show would result in the video being blocked.

[UrbanshadeHadalBlacksite]

I remember this show, I was inspired by WW2/D-DAY, and since the song.

I don’t know why they tried to show a tiger 1 trying to be a AA gun, must be a war thunder player

[saintroddy]

I don't remember these clips from the show, was I just not paying enough attention?

This sounds like the theme of an anti war show about the children’s perspective. Oh wait…
