Coeurs Vaillants (Valiant Hearts) is a drama that traces out the odyssey of 6 Jewish children hidden during World War II, who went to find refuge where no one would think to look for them ... in the Chambord Castle and its park, among the hidden works of art of the Louvre ... For a valiant heart nothing is impossible. This film also has an educational objective and aims to tell the children of today, in a story accessible to all and in which each child will be able to identify, that more than 75 years ago, children like them, because of their religion and their "race," were separated from their families, chased, and hunted.
