La Rafle

  • Director: Rose Bosch
  • Type: Features
  • Year: 2013
  • Language: French, German, Yiddish with English subtitles
  • Length: 115 minutes

This French box office hit is the story of the infamous Vel’ d’Hiv roundup in 1942 when French police carried out an extensive raid on Jews in greater Paris, resulting in the arrest of more than 13,000 people — including 4,000 children. Told from the perspective of the children and the nurse who cared for them, this is an emotionally astute and sensitive exploration of a long taboo subject in France — one that caused former French President Jacques Chirac to issue a public apology in 1995.
