Movie #2152 ........................."Collette" (oscar-nominated Doc shorts 2021)

 Movie #2152 "Collette" (oscar-nominated Doc Shorts 2021)  This is the one in the package of doc shorts that I purchased through Milwaukee Film Festival and the ones you could see if you rent or buy the bundle of doc shorts.  I wouldn't recommend that for this year because none of them were outstanding --- this one won the oscar, and it is on one of my favorite topics --- Holocaust/Resistance WWII, and I still just found it moderately interesting --- it never pulled me in.  Woman goes to Germany to honor her brother and a younger woman interviews her.  The style of this short doc is mostly using interview --- could have used more variety.  I would give it 3.8 out of 5.

In Nazi-occupied France, resistance took courage. Seventy-five years later, facing one's ghosts may take even more.
