Un rêve algérien

The real life story of Henri Alleg, a French-Algerian journalist, director of the "Alger républicain" newspaper, and a member of the French Communist Party. This is a film as Alleg revisits Algeria in 2003 after he was arrested on suspicion of undermining the power of the state by France's 10th Paratrooper Division in the home of his friend, mathematics professor Maurice Audin, who was arrested the day before and would later die under questionable circumstances while imprisoned. Alleg underwent one month of torture in El-Biar, a suburb of Algiers, despite the fact that no charges had been laid against him.
