The Army of Crime (2010): Ratings, Box Office & Plot

In the heart of Paris during the harrowing time of the German occupation, various resistance movements began to take shape, including efforts made by migrants. A mismatched assembly of fighters emerged, engaging in poorly coordinated attacks against the occupying forces. Among them was Missak Manouchian, an Armenian exile whose principles initially held him back from taking a life, as he grappled with the ethical implications of such actions. Nonetheless, the grim realities of his situation compelled him to confront his reservations. Under his guidance, the group of 23 fighters became organized, evolving into what would famously be known as the Manouchian Group. This band was part of a broader network of around 100 resistance members who orchestrated a majority of the armed resistance actions within Paris throughout 1943.
