Reflections on guilt, the price of action and inaction, meaning, solidarity and moral obligation, set among the French Resistance. One for everyone pondering inaction over genocides in 2024 for sure.
"she existed with him, with Marcel, with Madeleine, Laurent, Yvonne, with all the unknown human beings who slept in wooden huts and who had never heard her name, with all those who longed for a different tomorrow, even with those who did not know how to long for anything.
