France 2010, 137 minutes
Dir. Rachid Bouchareb
In French, Arabic with English subtitles

Synopsis: Dir. Bouchareb (DAYS OF GLORY) re-frames the revolutionary tactics of Algerian nationalists against the French post-WWII as a Melville-esque gangland saga, centred on three Algerian brothers who reunite in Paris with freedom fighting in mind.

“Think 'Godfather II' as told through France vs. Algeria tensions, and you have the essence of Rachid Bouchareb's vivid combo crime saga, action movie and historical drama.”~Peter Howell, Toronto Star
