80 years later, words that still resonate.
Documentary by Adam Joulia. French film. 1 hour 28 minutes.
At a time when speaking could be dangerous, voices were raised in the silence. What if a few words could change everything? What if they could save lives? What if they risked costing you yours? Would you say them? What if these words still resonated within us 80 years later?
"Children of War," a testimony by Madame Renée Seifer, tells the story of the children saved by the nuns of the Massip convent.
"Maurice Berger, for the Honor of Life," a testimony by Madame Agnès Berger, granddaughter of Maurice Berger, a heroic gendarme elevated to the rank of Righteous Among the Nations.
Finally, "The Letter, a testimony by Édouard Drommelschlager," tells how a letter written by his mother on the train taking her to the extermination camps turned its recipient's life upside down. A screening in the presence of director Adam Joulia, witnesses of these 3 short films, with the participation of Maurice Lugassy, regional coordinator of the Shoah Memorial.
