Story1
The fateful days and weeks surrounding June 6th, 1944, have been extensively documented in histories of the Second World War, but less attention has been paid to the tremendous impact of these events on the populations nearby. The Lost Paratroopers of Normandy tells the inspiring yet heartbreaking story of ordinary people who did extraordinary things in defense of liberty and freedom.

Story1
The French Army crumbled swiftly under the powerful blows delivered to it in 1940 by Adolf Hitler's Wehrmacht. Launching a massive feint into Belgium to lure French armies and the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) away from the actual point of attack, the weakly protected Ardennes Forest, the Germans struck past the Maginot Line. In a lightning campaign, panzers punched through to the coast, dividing Allied forces with a steel cordon across France and forcing the evacuation of the BEF from the port of Dunkirk.

At the age of 17, Adolfo Kaminsky had narrowly escaped deportation to Auschwitz and was living in Nazi-occupied Paris, using forged documents to hide in plain sight. Due to his expert knowledge of dyes and his ability to masterfully reproduce official documents with an artistic eye, he was recruited to join the Jewish underground. He soon became the primary forger for the Resistance in Paris, working tirelessly with his network to create papers that would save an estimated 14,000 men, women, and children from certain death.

La Seconde Guerre mondiale a été menée derrière les lignes ennemies par une armée du silence. Cette armée, c'est celle des réseaux de Résistance pilotés par les services secrets de la France libre et des Alliés. Leurs missions : recueil et transmission de renseignements, émissions radio clandestines, opérations secrètes et sabotages. Ces réseaux (Comète, Alliance, Saint-Jacques…) sont des acteurs majeurs de la victoire finale contre l'oppression nazie et fasciste. Leurs secrets ont été conservés dans des archives, ouvertes récemment.

La Résistance, constitue aujourd'hui encore une terre méconnue. Les Français furent-ils tous engagés ou tous "collabos" ? La vérité se situe sans doute à mi-chemin. L'engagement dans la Résistance ne fut pas facile à trouver, aucune institution n'appelait à la lutte en 1940. L'armée des ombres fut aussi traversée par des doutes et des conflits, Olivier Wieviorka revisite en historien d'une génération nouvelle cette période sombre de notre histoire.

In the course of six years at a writing residency in France, during which she met with survivors and historians, she painstakingly pieces together the puzzle that had been beguiling her over the years: What was the real story of the French Jews under the Vichy government during The Second World War?

An important chapter in history is that in which the Catholic Church was being questioned by the commoners. People were standing up against tyranny and illogical rules. They had had it with hypocrisy and double standards. The abuse in the church wasn’t representing the text in the Bible. Too much corruption had crept into the clergy, or so the narrative went about across the entire European continent.

La Seconde Guerre mondiale constitue la fracture métaphysique dans l'histoire de l'occident. La résistance est à la sublimation de l'individu ou au collectif d'individus ce que la shoah est à l'horreur humaine ou au crime contre l'humanité. La résistance deviendra la valeur salvatrice et sacralisée des familles et du pays, au détriment parfois de la recherche scientifique de la vérité. Depuis les années 50, des enseignants ont recueilli des témoignages en s'adressant aussi bien à des anonymes qu'à des acteurs incontournables.
