Remember: 80 years ago, France was liberated by Allied forces landing in Normandy, after several years under German occupation. While we've only just celebrated the 80th anniversary of the Liberation of Paris (August 25, 1944), in Sucy-en-Brie, the Baladins du Val-de-Marne company invites you to relive this event, or at least part of it, in Choisir la liberté, a new show presented at the Fort de Sucy-en-Brie (94).
January 1942: in occupied France, the small town of Sucy (94) struggles to cope with deprivation. A stranger asks a local family for hospitality for the night: for Léon - the family's son - it's love at first sight. An impossible love story under the Occupation, all the more so as the threat weighs even more heavily on members of the French Resistance...Discover the history of Sucy under the Occupation, in the heart of the town's fort.
