it inflicted a national trauma on France.
The attack on the Bataclan Theater 90 concertgoers, most of them young people, were brutally killed in the heart of Paris by a commando of Islamist terrorists.
One of the gunmen was 28 year old Samy Amimour, who was shot by police before blowing himself up with the scene.
Five years later, we drive to leisure in Belgium to meet Sami's father.
As Dean, Amimour still doesn't know what drove his son to take part in the attack.
It was atrocious.
So many deaths of innocent people.
E was sad.
E was angry.
I thought, What ingratitude way gave you everything.
Yet you did this to us, to your family, in the place where you lived E.
To this day, he can't understand why his son became a terrorist.
Ah, former law student.
Sammy was working as a bus driver when he became radicalized in a matter of months.
As Dean says, he can barely look at photos.
The memories are just to painful.
When his son mysteriously went off to Syria in 2013, as Dean followed and tried to get him to come home, Hey was like a zombie e spent four or five days there, but we barely exchanged a few sentences.
I asked him questions, but he wouldn't talk to you.
In the end, there was nothing he could do but go home.
On November 13 2015, a Siris of terrorist attacks took place in Paris claiming the lives of 130 people.
28 year old Lola Selene was among the victims.
She was at a concert at the Bataclan with friends.
A young woman with a zest for life, she's sorely missed by her father, George Lula Love to play roller derby.
There she is with her entire team.
Despite his grief and anger, George Selene agreed to talk with as Dean Amimour, who contacted him a year and a half ago.
Hey, he wanted to meet me because he was trying to meet his son's victims families to explain himself.
Onda ask for their forgiveness on, curiously enough so I could help him understand what has happened to him.
E wanted to share in this sorrow and explained to him that were not at all a family of terrorists, not a terrorist E also feel like a victim, and even Sammy is a victim of a sort.
As Dean Amimour suggested, they write a book together, one in which the fathers tell their stories in New rest.
Lemon or we still have words highlights the things they have in common.
E.
I'm very interested in the fight against terrorism on the terrorist accomplices, but I don't want innocent people to be attacked.
In the name of this fight, E seems counterproductive to me.
E wanted to show that you can even talk with the parents of a terrorist like the Parliament.
Always.
Now, five years after the attack jar, Selene and his family are trying to resume their normal lives in Paris.
By contrast, as Dean Amimour spends a lot of time alone in his apartment in leisure.
During our interview, he talked more about his experiences as a film producer, singer and businessman in various countries and less about his son and what drove him to commit an act of terror.
Lola's father, George Selene, tells us why he thinks that is, uh, well, as deep didn't see you understand everything about his son on a Sfar.
As his son's education was concerned, you could claim he made mistakes, but they were made in good faith on who can honestly say they'd have done any better.
The wounds will likely never fully heal.
But for George Selene and as Dina Me more, it's important to send out a sign of reconciliation.
