Paris 1940, the story of heroism in WW2. ======================================= Paris, 1940. The Nazi war machine tightens its grip on France. The streets are patrolled by Gestapo officers. Jewish families are ripped from their homes. Deportation trains roll toward Auschwitz. But in the heart of the city, the Grande Mosquée de Paris stands as a testament to a remarkable chapter in history—a story of courage, unity, and shared humanity amidst the shadows of war. ======================================= Note: - Most of the scenes inside mosques are for demonstration, not from the original Grande Mosquée de Paris. - The images used for the mosque are for the mosque itself. - Some videos made by AI as a description of the situation. ======================================= Resources https://moreshet.com/en/si-kaddour-ben-ghabrit The Film "Les Hommes Libres" (The Free Men) https://jewishcurrents.org/remembering-muslims-who-saved-jews-in-the-holocaust http://www.missingpages.co.uk/ww2.php https://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/04/movies/how-a-paris-mosque-sheltered-jews-in-the-holocaust.html https://www.voanews.com/a/paris-mosque-sheltered-jews-during-world-war-ii-131779553/146563.html https://collections.ushmm.org/search/catalog/bib214035 https://filmmovement.com/educational/film/free-men ==================================== #paris #ww2 #history #heroic #ww1 #historical #documentary #algeria #mosque #grande #granada #socialmedia #media #travel #europe #eurotravel #heroism #france #jewish #auschwitzbirkenau #isalmic #muslim #religion #humanity #unity #courage #europeanunion #germany
