The title, 'Louise-Michel', is a reference to Louise Michel (1830-1905), an important figure in the Paris Commune of 1871. She was known as an anarchist, a school teacher and a medical worker. At the end of the film, a picture of her is shown and there is a quote from her.
"Maintenant que nous savons
Que les riches sont des larrons,
Si notre père, notre mère
N'en peuvent purger la terre
Nous, quand nous aurons grandi,
Nous en ferons du hachis."
"Now that we all know The rich are thieves If our parents Cannot drive them from the earth When we grow up We'll make mincemeat of them."
