The 36 of La Madeleine

June 1944. Thirty-six Spanish Republican exiles stand against an overwhelming German force in the forests of La Madeleine, France. Outnumbered and with little hope of survival, their resistance becomes one of the most extraordinary yet forgotten episodes of the Second World War.

Decades later, an investigation into long-buried secrets forces a community to confront the truth behind their sacrifice. Blending meticulous historical research with a compelling dual-timeline narrative, The 36 of La Madeleine is more than a war story: it is a powerful exploration of memory, justice, and the enduring legacy of those erased from history.
