The Barbie trial: the awakening of memory
Sunday 08 October 2017 at 2:30 PM
The Klaus Barbie trial in 1987 opens a new stage in the construction of the memory of the Second World War and the Shoah. The testimonies concerning the arrest on 6 April 1944, then the deportation of the 44 Jewish children from the colony of Izieu in Ain with five adults constitute a highlight of the trial.
Four witnesses recount their involvement in the preparation of the trial and their appearance at the hearing.
In the presence of the witnesses Alexandre Halaunbrenner, Paul Niedermann, Samuel Pintel, and Adolphe Waysenson. Hosted by Perrine Kervran, journalist at France Culture.
Moderated by Pierre-Jérôme Biscarat, historian, and Dominique Missika, curator of the exhibition.
