MONSIEUR MAYONNAISE follows artist and cult filmmaker Philippe Mora as he uncovers his father’s remarkable exploits, specifically his father’s friendship with Marcel Marceau. The two saved thousands of Jewish lives by stuffing secret Resistance documents in baguettes dripping with garlicky mayonnaise that Nazi border guards would refuse to handle. We follow Mora as he recreates his family history through his vibrant paintings.

Hosted by the Vanderbilt University Holocaust Lecture Series

SPECIAL GUEST: Ari Dubin, Executive Director, Vanderbilt University Hillel & Rev. Mark Forrester, Vanderbilt University Chaplain, Director of Religious Life
