review

Rating: 6/10 (15 March 2019)

I watched this film as part of my Grade 10 Social Studies class during a unit on colonisation. I enjoyed the film more than I was expecting, especially considering it was in French and in black and white. I thought the movie was interesting, especially in having actual terrorists playing terrorists. I believe that the film is good for providing historical context and assisting in understanding of the real life situation, but not in providing hard facts or completely neutral information about the Battle of Algiers.
