Children from Montluçon (Allier), stars of a short film on STO refractories

Between Friday May 21 and Sunday May 23, the Montluçonnais artist collective Lilananda was filming, as part of Mythologies, its cultural action on the memory of Montluçon (Allier), initiated in 2017.

The short film deals with January 6, 1943, in Montluçon, when thousands of residents prevented the departure of an STO (compulsory labor service) train to Nazi Germany.

With eight children of the Secular Patronage

Eight children, aged 8 to 11, from school have worked on this episode of World War II since January with Fabien Granier:

They wrote the script, chose the characters, and wondered about the oppressive situations and the means of organization to fight them.

This piece of local history was chosen for its “heroic” aspect. It tells about the strength of the collective. The place of women is exceptional. They are the ones who led the action from start to finish, in complete secrecy. And it is a founding act of the Montluçonnaise resistance. “

Voltaire School and Montmarault Railway Museum

Filming began on Friday, May 21, in the premises of the Secular Patronage, at the Voltaire school in Montluçon. The children turned the scene of the conspiracy, when the women, workers, decide to act to prevent the departure of their sons, their husbands, their brothers, their fiancés.

On Saturday 22 May, the team moved to the Montmarault Railway Museum, before returning on Sunday 23 May to the Voltaire school.

Screening scheduled for the end of June at the Palace

The result will not exceed ten minutes and will be screened, if the sanitary instructions allow it, at the end of June at the Le Palace cinema. “Then it will be available on social networks,” says Fabien Granier. It will also be presented during the Mythologies festival in early July.
