D-Day 3D: Normandy 1944 - Saskatchewan Science Centre

April 30, 2:15 PM, Kramer IMAX Theatre

On June 6, 1944 the largest Allied operation of World War II began in Normandy, France.

 

D-Day itself is well-known, yet very few are aware of exactly why and how, during 100 days in the summer of 1944, Normandy became the most important location in the world.

 

D-Day 3D: Normandy 1944 provides a new, penetrating look at this moment in history in a unique manner.

 

Blending multiple cinematic techniques including animation, CGI, and stunning live-action images, D-Day 3D: Normandy 1944 brings this monumental event to the Kramer IMAX Theatre. Exploring science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, audiences of all ages, including new generations, will discover from a new perspective how this landing changed the world.

 

"This relatively brief take on D-Day outpunches its weight. A cogent overview of the Battle of Normandy focusing on the invasion, the film uses a state-of-the-art palette of cinematic techniques that keeps adults in the game while making it especially attractive and useful for kids."

World War II Magazine, July/August 2014

Narrated by Tom Brokaw, the film pays tribute to those who gave their lives for our freedom.
