Army of Crime
Directed by Robert Guédiguian
Produced by France 3 Cinéma, StudioCanal
A historically grounded, morally serious account of immigrant resistance fighters who became martyrs against Nazi occupation, balancing intimate human bonds with the weight of historical tragedy.
This gripping historical drama recounts the story of Armenian-born Missak Manouchian, a woodworker and political activist who led an immigrant laborer division of the Parisian Resistance on 30 operations against the Nazis in 1943. The Nazis branded the group an Army of Crime, an anti-immigrant propaganda stunt that backfired as the team's members became martyrs for the Resistance.
