Hors la loi (2010) ***
A film that perfectly captures the real difference between a terrorist and a freedom fighter. There is none. A freedom fighter is a terrorist who wins the war. A terrorist is a freedom fighter who looses the war. In this film, bloodthirsty and psychopathic terrorists win the independance of their country and can be celebrated as heroes.

Le Bal (1983) ***
An Algerian film about France, directed by an Italian. The concept is brilliant: 50 years of French history told through dancing in the same ballroom. With the dancers (always played by the same actors) changing characters, the film travels through time, from 1930 until 1980.
