The hunt for Laurent Jaoui
France, fiction, 108 min, Elzevir Films, 2008. With the support of the Foundation for the Memory of the Shoah.
Serge and Beate Klarsfeld dedicated twelve years of their life to the hunt for Klaus Barbie. This film looks back on their first stunts in Germany up to the legal and media fights that led to his trial in France. This fiction, with Yvan Attal, Franka Potente and Hanns Zischler, owes its originality in particular to the various points of view it adopts: that of the Klarsfeld couple, of Klaus Barbie and the Bolivians, new victims of this "exiled" barbarity.
Meeting in the presence of Serge Klarsfeld, historian, and Olivier Lalieu, responsible for the development of places of memory and external projects, Shoah Memorial.
Moderated by Charles Tenenbaum, senior lecturer in political science, member of the board of directors of the EEIF.
