The Resistance
Directed by Félix Olivier, Christophe Nick and Patricia Bodet
How does civil society react when confronted with barbarism? Based on recent research by historians, these films take a fresh look at the France of 1940-44. This collection tells the story of the anonymous people who fought against Vichy and the Nazis from June 1940, and traces the little-known destiny of those who risked their lives to save the Jews.
