Laval, le collaborateur

Directed by Laurent Heynemann

With Patrick Chesnais, Grégoire Leprince-Ringuet, Hande Kodja, Mathieu Bisson and Brigitte Catillon

Several times president of the Council, at the end of the 1930s Pierre Laval became one of Marshal Pétain's strongmen, a loyal collaborator for the Germans. Rounding-up Jews, forced labour, tracking the French resistance..., he served Hitler faithfully to the end. When France was liberated, he was tried, condemned, shot.
