As part of the European Heritage Days

United States, documentary, 91 min, 1999.

This film tells how the inhabitants of Chabannes, a tiny village in unoccupied France, preferred action to indifference and saved the lives of 400 Jewish children who had taken refuge during the Second World War. We dive again with some actors of this rescue, through intimate interviews of historians, teachers, OSE employees and "children" of Chabannes, in the joys and fears of daily life during the war.

In the presence of the directors.
