Production


15 Lads was Romain Cogitore's feature film directorial debut. The film was inspired by the real-life experiences of Cogitore's grandfather, Antoine Cogitore, who was a resistance fighter during World War II in the Maquis of Grande Chartreuse when he was 17 years old. Antoine's voice taken from a conversation between him with the director is featured at the end of the film. "I find his film very good. It was made by a young person for young people. I was overwhelmed, especially when I heard my voice at the end of the film. I didn't know that he had kept an extract of my conversation with him", Antoine said of the film in 2011.
The film was shot in Alsace and Vosges, between August and September 2009.
