For fear of reprisals and knowing that he had been sentenced to death by the FLN, this man found protection with the French authorities and definitively signed up as a harki on January 2, 1960. This was not the beginning of a fiction, but the story of Rabah Zanoun's father. Today, he became aware of the unacknowledged drama that his father experienced. Uprooted, humiliated, ridiculed, he had never spoken. Together, they decide to go in search of the past, on the roads of Lorraine and Kabylie, to understand its history and finally give the floor to a harki. Far from investigative or historical investigation films, this documentary aims to be an intimate reading of the destiny of a man. Written by Capuseen See less
