Despite the Nazi persecutions and the collaboration of the Vichy regime, three-quarters of the Jews of France survived. They owe this survival primarily to themselves, but also to the establishment of mutual aid networks. Through the testimonies of hidden children, members of networks and the insights of historians, this film traces the journey of these women and men who engaged in the rescue of Jews, sometimes at the risk of their lives.

Film supported by the Foundation for the Memory of the Shoah.
