Quote:
"La vie d'un héros (1994) deals with a neglected episode in Quebec history, the period during and just after the Second World War when a large number of German prisoners were held in the Eastern Townships region of Quebec and many were employed as agricultural labourers on local farms."
-- Bill Marshall
