"Le Front Populaire" est une période courte de notre histoire récente connue. Mais en dehors de son nom de l'année 1936 qui lui est associée et l'idée des vacances, on se souvient de peu de choses de ce mouvement. Ce mouvement résulte de l'alliance de tous les partis de gauche, les socialistes, les communistes et les radicaux. Comment Léon Blum à la tête du gouvernement, avec les accords de Matignon à donnés de nouveaux droits aux français : semaine de 40 heures (au lieu de 48), 15 jours de congés payés, augmentation des salaires, ... . Et comment les ouvriers en attendant que leurs patrons signent chacun ses accords, on fait grève. Une grève qui à finit par conduire Léon Blum à quitter le pouvoir, remplacé par un radical. Comment en voulant réarmer le pays, suite au réarmement de l'Allemagne hitlérienne, les usines d'armes se sont mises en grèves afin que leurs droits nouvellement acquis ne soient pas bafoués par le gouvernement de "Front Populaire".Le documentaire retrace donc l'histoire du Front Populaire, de sa constitution à sa dissolution, de manière neutre. Les auteurs du films ne jettent la pierre à personnes quand à l'échec du Front. Les hommes politiques, les patrons, les ouvriers et les situation économiques et internationales ont poussées à son échec. En ce fait qu'il narre de manière neutre et objective cette histoire c'est un bon documentaire. (fonte:senscritique.com)… (plus d'informations)

As shown on the Yesterday TV Channel, this part series 'Nazi Collaborators' explores the fascinating and often shocking tales of how individuals from all walks of life from the privileged and the political elite to ordinary working men turned against their nations and races to fight alongside the Nazis during World War 2.

Some believed that siding with the imperialist Germans offered the best chance of survival for their people, whilst others would later claim they would be killed if they refused. From the Jewish leader who offered up his people as free labour, to the ex-French Prime Minister who actively aided the Nazi hunt for the Resistance. And from the IRA-German plot to invade Northern Ireland to the brutal killing squads of Lithuania, this ground-breaking series explores the complex motivations behind the controversial paths these collaborators chose.
