COMMUNITY RATING




Written by Bouchareb, “Hors-la-loi” is a dramatic telling of the Algerian struggle for independence from France after WWII, and a continuation of Bouchareb’s Academy Award nominated “Days of Glory.” After losing their family home in Algeria, three brothers are scattered across the globe. Messaoud joins the French army fighting in Indochina; Abdelkader becomes a leader of the Algerian independence movement in France and Saïd moves to Paris to make his fortune in the shady clubs and boxing halls of Pigalle. Gradually, their interconnecting destinies reunite them in the French capital, where freedom is a battle to be fought and won.
