This is the first fiction feature film from independent Algeria. Jacques Charby, who had been sentenced in absentia in 1961 to ten years in prison for helping the FLN, tells the story of his adopted son Mustapha (the child plays his own role), tortured and mutilated at the age of eight years by the French paratroopers. The film was selected in official competition in 1965 at the Cannes Film Festival, the same year it won the Young Cinema Prize at the Moscow Film Festival. Written by Africa films revue See less
