Abstract

La Résistance is an original screenplay set in 1944 France, focused on a protective young woman struggling to keep her resistance group united and alive as they hunt, and are hunted by, a cold, calculating Milice captain. This first draft explores the ideological divide within the French Resistance alongside the more abstract ideas of why someone fights and what they do when they lose sight of what they fought for to begin with.
