On le sait, les stars de la chanson française, en général, n'ont pas été trop intimidées - ni inquiétées - par l'occupant allemand. Certaines, d'ailleurs, se sont empressées de séduire les oreilles pétainistes et nazies. Fallait-il, ou non, continuer à chanter? Cette activité pouvait-elle passer pour une forme de collaboration? A questions dérangeantes, réponses ambiguës! Quoi qu'il en soit, et comme le montre ce film, les années sombres ont été plutôt fertiles pour la chanson française.
