Arieh Worthalter, Arthur Harari, Stéphan Guérin-Tillié, Nicolas Briançon,

Arieh Worthalter won a Cesar Award for his portrayal of Pierre Goldman, a fiery and controversial figure of revolutionary left-wing activism, who was put on trial in France in 1975. Accused of multiple crimes, including two murders, Goldman proclaimed his innocence. Considered to be the trial of the century, the Goldman case divided an entire country and reflects the political, ideological, and racial tensions that marked the 1970s in France and Europe. The film sheds light on the complexity of Jewish identity in recent European history.
