Algeria/France
2h 8min
Original language: Arabic, French
A drama about Algerian independence, seen through the relationship of two friends, Djaffar and Hamid, one a modest idealist, the other a consummate wheeler-dealer. From the heady times of the revolution and the euphoric first years after independence, The Man from Oran is a soul-searching, biting critique of a nation's psyche, and an exploration of the secrets and betrayals that drive friends apart.
