History in Technicolour - A podcast by David Crowther and Wolf O'Neill

Categories:

Made in 1966 by Italian neo-realist director Gillo Pontecorvo, the film is based the actions of rebels and French government during the Algerian War of 1954–62. So realistic was it, that it has been used as a training film.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
