Résumé
--
John William was born in a little village on the Ivory Coast, on the banks of the Ebrié lagoon. Taken from his mother when he was only eighteen months old, he was irrevocably uprooted at the age of eight when he was sent to a French boarding school. War broke out, John William, who then worked in a factory, was arrested and deported. Both victim and witness of the greatest horror of our century, he survived the death camp at Neuengamme and learned to live again after the nightmare. Then began a brilliant career in the 'show-biz' world of the fifties (everyone still remembers his greatest hits, 'Si toi aussi tu m'abandonnes', or the 'Chanson de Lara'). But in '68, he moved away from the music-hall, giving more and more 'modern spiritual' recitals in churches, finding in this new activity a means of expressing the deep beliefs that motivate him: his faith and his fight for the respect of each human being's dignity."
