"1945, Prisoner of War: Captivity and Return" is set in the autumn of 1945, at the end of World War II. In a simple setting, men wait for women to reread their sons' letters after five years of absence. The prisoners return, raising questions about what has become of them and what awaited them.

The show blends original texts, prisoners' letters, testimonies, poems and period songs to tell the story of the post-war period from an intimate point of view.
In partnership with the ONACVG and the Departmental Association of War Prisoners, this show benefits from the "Memorial Action 2025" label awarded by the Prefecture of Isère.

Show designed and directed by Roland Monon, with Thérèse Aymoz, Louise Cavagna, Dominique Mauric and Roland Monon.
