Pingouin & Goéland et leurs 500 petits

It is the story of a couple who could not have children and who had hundreds. This is the story of Yvonne and Roger Hagnauer, whom everyone called Goéland et Pingouin. It is the story of intellectuals, anarchists, pacifists, trade unionists, feminists. This is the story of a couple of resistance fighters that some wanted to believe were collaborators. This is the story of the Sèvres children's home, a unique experience of freedom, education and openness to the world. And that's a bit of my story, since my mother, saved by this couple, spent in this house all her childhood.

Night Will Fall

When Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps in 1944-45, their terrible discoveries were recorded by army and newsreel cameramen, revealing for the first time the full horror of what had happened. Making use of British, Soviet and American footage, the Ministry of Information’s Sidney Bernstein (later founder of Granada Television) aimed to create a documentary that would provide lasting, undeniable evidence of the Nazis’ unspeakable crimes. He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".
