In prison in colonial Algeria, shortly after the end of the Second World War, three indigenous cellmates make out. Once free, they attack the authority represented by the triad of the boss, the gendarme and the administrator. “Living the colonial condition,” confided Tewfik Farès, “is something! It’s not sociologically or historically speaking. It’s life. And I think that’s all there in it. [...] For a hundred and thirty years, we wait. We hold back. We push back. We hope. At the same time, on different occasions, there are skirmishes, unrest.

Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
LouHomey From my favorite movies..
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
GUENOT PHILIPPE It's a rare and very underrated film I am speaking about. It's an Algerian film, taking place in Algeria just after WW2, a decade before war in this very country. The story of a bunch of young men who refuse to pay taxes for the French government and who go on rampage. OK it's not a very good film; bad directing, bad acting, awful editing, but nevertheless interesting to watch. It was released in France back in 1976, seven years after its making, and I am not surprised, as far as French officers are rather shown in a very negative way. Not the best Algerian movie ever made but Worth viewing. I'll try to see more items of this kind and then comment them.
