Volontaires du nouveau service militaire : l'année qui va changer leur vie
Depuis un an, 5 000 filles et garçons, âgés de 18 à 25 ans, se sont engagés dans l'armée française pour effectuer un service militaire pas comme les autres : le SMV, Service Militaire Volontaire. Ce nouveau dispositif s'adresse aux jeunes peu ou pas diplômés avec, à la clef, une formation et le passage du permis de conduire. Ophélie Meunier et les équipes de Zone Interdite ont suivi le parcours de jeunes recrues, à Montigny-lès-Metz en Moselle, l'un des trois premiers centres ouverts en France. Neuf mois décisifs, qui, tous l'espèrent, vont changer leur vie.
With a staggering 1112 episodes across seven seasons, 'RE: European Stories' is not your average TV series; it's an immersive experience that takes viewers on a captivating tour of Europe. This reportage magazine showcases different aspects of the continent - from focusing on significant political events such as elections to painting detailed portraits of individual countries or highlighting the efforts of single persons driving small-scale European projects.
The series starts powerfully with episode 1 focusing on the right-wing populist 'Party for Freedom' (PVV) which could become the strongest force in the Dutch elections held on March 15, 2017. It portrays how this development becomes a nightmare for migrants and Muslims in the country, demonstrating how rigid positions in this once liberal flagship democracy are. The high-emotional election campaign is shown to change society significantly.
Moving further into Eastern Europe, episode 2 sheds light on Poland's growing fear of Russian invasion since the Ukraine crisis. It shows tens of thousands of men and women trading their everyday outfits for olive-green combat attire to train for defending their homeland. Even Polish education is seen embracing militarization trends with over 30,000 students attending uniform classes where they receive military training using real weapons.
