Summary: | When we think of the First World War, it's usually flashes of “Poilus” in the trenches, gas masks, disfigured soldiers and other atrocities that come to mind. We must recognize that, beyond this nightmarish vision, we retain a very masculine conflict, where women seem to have no place – except that of the very glamorized nurse, whose different uniforms appear in fashion magazines of the time. The series Les Combattantes breaks down these stereotypes by bringing another dimension to the role of women, these shadow warriors. Through this eight-episode mini-series on the crucial role of female patriots, it is the duty of remembrance as well as the need for hidden recognition that are effectively revived. |
