Like all Jews in France, Jo learns that he is banned from parks, cinemas, fairgrounds and public gardens... But still, this sounds like happiness to Jo and his family. Until dawn on July 16, 1942, when this fragile happiness is shattered... At 4 a.m., shouts and banging on doors. Men in black uniforms burst into apartments. Jo and his family are hauled out of their beds and herded onto buses... by French gendarmes! To the great despair of a community deeply attached to their new homeland. 13,000 Jews are crammed into the Winter Velodrome in Paris. The biggest round up in History perpetrated by.... French police! Five days without water, food or healthcare. Dr. Sheinbaum, (Jean Reno ) rounded-up with the others, does what he can. Annette Monod (Melanie Laurent), a protestant Red Cross nurse, is appalled by the racism of her country's government of collaborators. From Paris to the terrace of the Berghof, where Hitler and Eva Braun throw parties for Aryan children while Jewish children are being sent to death camps; from smoky government offices where the fate of France's Jews is decided to the camps of shame, The Round-Up charts the real-life destiny of the victims and their persecutors. Lives destroyed, lives saved. Like Jo,'s who escapes with another boy. While all the others are loaded onto a train for Auschwitz... - More info Marketing materials Request for information

The story opens with their first encounter at a fancydress ball at the Opera, when neither knows the true identity of the other. It is only a few days later, when the death of Louis XV has made her Queen, that the young foreigner learns who the lovely unknown of the Opera really is. He leaves shortly afterwards. Four years later he returns to Paris as a Lieutenant in the Swedish dragons. The Queen invites him to Versailles. For fear of compromising the Queen, Fersen leaves for America. A tender correspondence then follows, of which the King is informed. When the Revolution comes, Fersen stays loyal to the Royal couple, in vain. - More info Marketing materials Request for information
