Synopsis

During the German occupation of World War II, François, Eusèbe, and Lisa, three courageous children, embark on a secret adventure: resisting the Nazis in the heart of France. Through sabotage, hidden messages, and perilous escapes, they carry out clandestine actions right under the enemy's nose. Daring and friendship are their only weapons in the fight against injustice.

Community Reviews

The reviews for 'The Children of the Resistance' reveal a mix of emotions, with many viewers finding the film touching and emotionally engaging, particularly praising the performances of certain actors like Gérard Jugnot. However, criticisms focus on the sometimes poor acting of the child actors and a perceived oversimplification of the historical context. The film's portrayal of a child-led resistance is seen as both a unique angle and a bit idealized.

👍 Unique portrayal of child-led resistance

👎 Child actors' performances sometimes lacking
