WAQAI SININ AL-DJAMR
(CHRONICLE OF THE YEARS OF EMBERS)
A meticulous chronicle of the evolution of the Algerian national movement from 1939 until the outbreak of the revolution on November 1st, 1954, the film unequivocally demonstrates that the “Algerian War” is not an accident of history, but a slow process of revolts and suffering, uninterrupted, from the start of colonization in 1830, until this “Red All Saints’ Day” of November 1st, 54. Composed of six chapters, the film paints the merciless picture of political and warlike history of colonial Algeria.
