Des \u201cterroristes\u201d \u00e0 la retraite (\u201cTerrorists\u201d in Retirement<\/em>)<\/strong>
Mosco Levi Boucault, DCP, 71 min
France, 1983 (French)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1983 Cannes Film Festival & 2020 Cin\u00e9ma du R\u00e9el<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Too controversial to be shown on French TV when first released, the film follows seven surviving comrades of the executed members, found guilty of \u201cterrorism\u201d, from the immigrant section of the French Resistance during World War II. The documentary provoked unsettling debates about how the group was captured, and about why the French establishment (and history books) never fully embraced the immigrant and Jewish fighters who were the backbone of armed resistance in Paris. The film provides a powerful corrective to myths concerning the French Resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presented as part of the Albertine Cin\u00e9math\u00e8que program & co-sponsored by the Sam and Helen Stahl Center for Jewish Studies & the Department of History<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
