VEIL / BADINTER OU DE LA CONVICTION ET DU COURAGE EN POLITIQUE

Les Voix du Caméléon Theater Company Ages 14 and up January 17, 1975: Decriminalization of abortion. September 18, 1981: Abolition of the death penalty. Two landmark laws that define our modernity and our justice system. Two major figures in our contemporary history: Simone Veil and Robert Badinter. Beyond their partisan affiliations, Simone Veil and Robert Badinter distinguished themselves through the strength of their convictions, their courage, and their commitment to fundamental rights. Their struggles have profoundly shaped our society. While these advances continue to fuel public debate, are they truly secured for good? With this documentary theater production, the theater company Les Voix du Caméléon allows some to revisit and others to discover these two major political moments that have helped shape our collective life. Two speeches whose power, modernity, and significance still resonate today.
