"The Blue Line": A Documentary Awakens Memory of the Struthof Camp in Alsace
Director Marie Dumora creates a film that examines the memorial and intergenerational impact left by the former Nazi concentration camp located in Alsace, through testimonies from residents of neighboring villages and their descendants.
A new documentary titled "The Blue Line" sheds light on the memory of Struthof, a former Nazi concentration camp located in Alsace, according to Le Monde. The film is directed by Marie Dumora.
According to the newspaper's description, the documentary explores "the memorial and intergenerational imprint" left by this place of extermination. The director chose to interview witnesses living in the surrounding villages as well as their descendants, in order to understand how the memory of the camp was passed down through generations.
Struthof, the only Nazi concentration camp established on present-day French territory, left a lasting mark on the Alsatian region. Le Monde describes the documentary as "invaluable" for the way it brings this place out of oblivion by giving voice to the local populations affected by this history.
The article, published in the daily newspaper's culture section, does not specify the film's release date or other technical production details.
