Karambolage - The Dance Lesson And The "Malgré Nous"

Karambolage n°372

Synopsis

Exploring the links between France and Germany : who were the "Malgré-nous" of the Second World War ? Traditional dance and more : what is the German "Tanzstunde"? How do people sneeze on both sides of the Rhine ?

The "Malgré nous": French, Belgian and Luxembourg soldiers drafted into the German army to fight against their compatriots. Their fate was often tragic.

Claire Doutriaux tells us about a ritual that left its mark on her in Germany : "die Tanzstunde", the dance lesson.
