This lecture, in the form of a dialogue between Gérard Rabinovitch, vice-president of the Institut Universitaire Rachi, and Samuel Blumenfeld, film critic at Le Monde newspaper, will address this contemporary and difficult subject, the misuse of the term ‘Resistance’. The Army of Shadows is a reference to Joseph Kessel’s book adapted for the cinema by Jean-Pierre Melville, two Resistance fighters who wished to pay tribute to their fellow soldiers who had the courage to risk their lives for France and its values, aware of the weight of this word and those who embodied it.
