Resistance (2020)
R | 2h | Biography, Drama, History | 27 March 2020 (USA)
RESISTANCE is a true story of heroism in which a group of Girls and Boy Scouts created a network that ended up saving the lives of around ten thousand orphans whose parents had been killed by the Nazis in the Second World War. At the center of the movie we find an aspiring Jewish actor whose desperate need to help the children lead him into the world of pantomime, and who will later and, thanks to this experience, become the legendary French mime Marcel Marceau.
“While JOJO RABBIT helps children to grasp with the realities of the Holocaust, RESISTANCE informs parents of how to discuss it with them. It’s a hold-fast chronicling of French mime-to-be Marcel Marceau’s wartime nobility, and Jesse Eisenberg turns in one of his most nuanced performances for his portrayal.” – Preston Barta | Denton Record-Chronicle
