About this Event

Join us for night #3 of the fifth edition of Voices of Francophone Film Festival, dedicated to the theme "Our Freedoms," with the classic 1983 film from Mosco Boucault Terrorists in Retirement. Considered too controversial to be shown on French TV when first released – after its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, in 1983, it is the story of men and women from Armenia, Poland, and Romania, mostly Jews, who fought the German occupation of Paris during World War II. Most infamously, there were 21 members of the Manouchian Group, who were part of the FTP-MOI (Francs-tireurs et partisans – main-d'œuvre immigrée), the immigrant section of the French Resistance.
