René Bousquet ou Le Grand Arrangement plot

Dramatized documentary about banker René Bousquet (Daniel Prévost), as police chief of the Vichy regime and therefore partly responsible for the large Jewish roundup in Paris on 16 and 17 July 1942, turns a black page in French history. Technocrat René for a short time provided lethally effective assistance to the Nazis, but he pleaded his case all his life: he had not sacrificed French Jews to save French ones; Wasn't that a patriotic act of resistance?
