Summary:Based on a true story, set at the Lycee Leon Blum in the working-class banlieue of Creteil, teenage students from the rough Paris suburbs find their lives upended by memories of the Holocaust. A motivational history teacher has forced her unruly class of juniors to participate in the annual Concours national de la Resistance et de la Deportation (National Contest of Resistance and Deportation). Required to hand in a creative project on the theme of 'Children and Teenagers under the Nazi Regime', the mixed group of students, many of Islamic faith, gradually learned to overcome their prejudices, banding together in the name of tolerance and remembrance.
