With The Story of the 3 Adolf by Osamu Tezuka, Hitler by Shigeru Mizuki, and Mein Kampf by Kadokawa Shoten, the mangakas took up the theme of the Holocaust. In what way is this "exotic" subject approached in the world’s leading comic book industry, and with what perspective, when Germany was Japan’s ally during the Second World War?

In partnership with:

In the presence of Vincent Bourgeau, and Alain Lewkowicz, authors of Anne Frank in the land of manga, Yayo Okano, professor at Doshisha University, and Didier Pasamonik, curator of the exhibition.
