About Face à l'histoire : les Résistantes

Face à l'histoire : les Résistantes is a documentary TV series that premiered on France 5 on April 13, 2025. It has 1 season and 4 episodes so far and has ended. The latest episode, Season 1 Episode 4, aired on April 13, 2025.

Often reduced to a handful of romantic clichés - that of a young messenger on a bicycle or a fighter posing with her machine gun slung over her shoulder - women have long remained invisible in the history of the French Resistance. And yet, in a defeated, humiliated country deprived in part of its male population, women were the first to react and initiate a spirit of resistance. Through five individual destinies, this collection highlights the crucial role played by women between 1940 and 1944.

    While Geneviève de Gaulle was liberated from Ravensbrück in April 1945, Mila Racine suffered a tragic fate and died six weeks before the end of the war. At the Liberation, the return to normal life was not easy for the four survivors and the women of the Resistance. The gender order was re-established, and there was a crying lack of recognition for their work. Simonne Mathieu and Renée Davelly died anonymously. Lucie Aubrac and Geneviève de Gaulle are among the rare female icons who never cease to transmit the spirit of the Resistance.

    General de Gaulle's June 18 appeal marked the entry of the five heroines into the Resistance.

    Synopsis: 20/20 is an American television newsmagazine that has been broadcast on ABC since June 6, 1978. Created by ABC News executive Roone Arledge, the show was designed similarly to CBS's 60 Minutes but focuses more on human interest stories than international and political subjects. The program's name derives from the "20/20" measurement of visual acuity. The hour-long program has been a staple on Friday evenings for much of the time since it moved to that timeslot from Thursdays in September 1987, though special editions of the program occasionally air on other nights.
