Schlaflos in Istanbul

Can people from two different cultures be happy? "Yes! Yes!

From Jakob's point of view, starting a family is out of the question for the time being. And so they have a falling out before they have even exchanged their news.

Not just another documentary on the French resistance movement, this film focuses on one particular group of underground fighters in France: those from Eastern Europe.

After their execution, Paris was papered with posters decrying these 23 martyrs as "foreign communists."
