Unité Documentaire RTBF-Liège

Between 1944 and 1953, 170,000 Estonians, Latvians, and Lithuanians put up fierce resistance to the Soviet invasion, hiding deep in the vast Baltic forests. Driven by a dream of freedom, they defied a ruthless empire with few resources but unwavering determination. Through previously unseen archives and the poignant accounts of the last survivors, this documentary reveals their clandestine struggle, their heroic sacrifices, and their legacy, timeless symbols of a desperate fight to escape the Soviet stranglehold and preserve the flame of independence.

This documentary tells the stories and struggle of families affected by police violence. Their brother, their father, their loved one died after an police intervention. Five families retrace the circumstances of this death and tell their fight for truth and justice. Cédric Chouviat, Allan Lambin, Claude Jean-Pierre, Wissam El-Yamni and Gaye Camara.

A diffraction of the autobiography using family footage filmed between the 1940s and today, this "science fiction documentary" creates multiple "I"s and transcends a story of mourning
