Alsace, dans la tourmente de l'Histoire (2023)

Directed by Richard Puech

Documentary, History · 1h 30m

Half-timbered houses, storks, wine, sauerkraut, traditional headdresses, the Alsatian accent: these images and clichés of Alsace occupy the imagination of almost all French people. Few other regions can boast such a charming and popular heritage. But behind this apparent prosperity and love of a job well done lies a more painful history. Ravaged by three wars in less than a century, Alsace saw its inhabitants forced to change nationality four times during a single lifetime. A tormented, extraordinary destiny, little known to the rest of the country.
