Episode Overview
Aurès region, Algeria, November 1, 1954. Brahim, a bus driver, witnesses the assassination of two passengers. This attack, signed by the FLN, was one of dozens that day throughout the country and marked the beginning of the war of liberation. However, colonial France, settled in Algeria since 1830, continues to turn a deaf ear to these warnings.
