Press Release from Music Box:
In collaboration with Axel Films Production, Music Box Records presents a limited edition CD release of acclaimed composer Philippe Rombi’s (Black Box, The Crime Is Mine) original motion picture score to the wartime family adventure Les Enfants de la Résistance (2026), directed by Christophe Barratier (The Chorus, War of the Buttons).
Adapted by Christophe Barratier and Stéphane Keller from the bestselling comic book series by Vincent Dugomier and Benoît Ers, the film tells the story of François, Eusèbe, and Lisa - three brave children who resolve to oppose the German occupiers during World War II. Sabotage operations, hidden messages, and perilous escapes: they carry out clandestine actions right under the enemy’s nose. Daring and friendship are their only weapons in the fight against injustice.
Philippe Rombi, the director’s longtime collaborator, delivers a poignant and deeply moving symphonic score, featuring a magnificent main theme for orchestra and choir. The album also reveals a darker theme driven by vibrant strings and percussion to evoke the presence of the Nazis, as well as playful adventure motifs underscoring the clever tricks of the three courageous children.
Dive into the heart of heroism and unbreakable friendship with the masterful original soundtrack of Les Enfants de la Résistance, released in French theaters on February 11, 2026. The cast includes Artus, Gérard Jugnot, Pierre Deladonchamps, Leslie Medina, Julien Pestel, and the young actors Lucas Hector, Nina Filbrandt, and Octave Gerbi.
