In 1960, during the Algerian civil war, Lieutenant Roque is a French officer worn out by the meandering conflict. Roque and his men have been posted to a small, isolated village. His role is, officially, to pacify the Algerians, and to convince of the "good intentions" of the French presence in the country . But in fact, the main goal is the dismantling and severe repression of the FLN (Algerian undercover army of liberation). He tries hard to live up to his function, torn between the resentful locals and the French soldiers. After the discovery of a notebook, containing confidential information, Roque is confronted with the possible betrayal of some of his men, all of them young recruits of North-African extraction. One of the suspects, Taieb, is Roque's protégé... (Pyramide Distribution)
