Algerian War: Sixty years on, artists help heal the wounds
During the Algerian War of Independence, Mansourah was one of thousands of communities the colonial French rulers turned into resettlement camps. These forced removals affected nearly half the rural Algerian population, and at the end of the war, more than two million people were dispersed between two thousand "regroupement camps" created by the French army. The deeply moving documentary sees the director take her father, Malek, back to Mansourah – a village he fled as a 10-year-old boy in 1960. It unravels her father's story but also the memories of those displaced as well as the inhabitants who saw their village turn into a camp they could not escape from.
