Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at Christopher Nolan’s epic war movie, Dunkirk. This exclusive image – check it out below – from the new issue of Total Film magazine shows Harry Styles, Aneurin Barnard, and Fionn Whitehead at sea in the historical thriller from the director of Inception and The Dark Knight.

The movie is shot on numerous locations, including Dunkirk itself, as Nolan sets out to tell the real-life story of the evacuation of the beaches of Dunkirk, where 400,000 soldiers were stranded at the dawn of World War 2.

As ever, Nolan is dedicated to doing as much as he can in-camera for real, which meant spending weeks shooting on boats, plus flying real Spitfires – and even filming in the water for one bravura sequence.
