Review the ceremony of
Yom Hashoah 2017

On the occasion of Yom HaShoah, the date chosen by the State of Israel to commemorate the victims of the Shoah and the heroes of the Jewish resistance during the Second World War, an uninterrupted public reading takes place every year for 24 hours, day and night. On 23 and 24 April 2017, of the 76,000 names inscribed on the Wall of Names, the names of those deported from France by convoys no. 32 to no. 70 were pronounced one by one. Some 200 people, former deportees, parents, volunteers, children... have read in turn, from the lists from the Memorial Deportation Book of Serge Klarsfeld (published by the Association of FFDJF), the names of "those whose only name remains" (Simone Veil).

This ceremony, which took place on the forecourt of the Shoah Memorial in Paris, was filmed in its entirety:
