Terrorists in Retirement

1985

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. Many were Jews and all had fled their native countries before the war broke out. They were among the most staunch and fearless enemies of fascism, as shown here in personal interviews and memoirs of war-time experiences. But the most famous of these immigrants were 23 who were rounded up among several hundred Parisians in 1943, tried for their activities, and executed -- all were immigrants under the leadership of the Armenian poet Manouchian. After their execution, Paris was papered with posters decrying these 23 martyrs as "foreign communists."

Errico Malatesta - Vers une nouvelle humanite

Invalid Date

A young woman searches for the grave of Errico Malatesta (1853-1932), one of the most important figures of world anarchism. He is buried in an unmarked spot in the huge Verano Cemetery in Rome. The task seems more difficult than expected, but this long search turns into a journey through anarchism, which begins at the birth of the unforgettable revolutionary and covers a century and a half of the history of anarchism, drawing on texts written by Malatesta and other intellectuals who lived after him, up to and beyond the 21st century. This documentary is also a political manifesto that wants to bring back to the forefront a discourse that seems to have been interrupted in public opinion for too many years, putting forward scientific and philosophical references that can stimulate and give a new impulse to anarchist alternatives.
