Au revoir les enfants
1987 · Film · 105 min
Directed by Louis Malle
Au revoir les enfants tells a heartbreaking story of friendship and devastating loss concerning two boys living in Nazi-occupied France. At a provincial Catholic boarding school, the precocious youths enjoy true camaraderie—until a secret is revealed. Based on events from writer-director Malle’s own childhood, the film is a subtle, precisely observed tale of courage, cowardice, and tragic awakening.

Yes this is a normal phrase meaning simply other people and nothing to do with ‘the other’ which has a different meaning in English.
Another example of this is the film ‘Au revoir les enfants’ which a literal translation would render as ‘Goodbye the children’ but is really just ‘Goodbye children’.
