This is a moving & remarkable study of courage & heroic resistance to the Nazis as shown by the people of Le Chambon, a small Huguenot town in Southern France. There, under the eyes of the Vichy and a Nazi SS division, the local clergy & citizens harboured thousands of Jewish refugees, saving them from the concentration camps. A previously-untold story.
