December
In Algiers, during the Algerian War of Independence, one of the leaders of the FLN was arrested by the French colonial army, which used the most violent methods to make the prisoners speak. The use of torture poses a conscience problem for a French officer. Playing shot-reverse-shot, between the tortured and his torturer, in a suffocating camera, Mohammed Lakhdar-Hamina approaches torture by drawing inspiration from the story of his father, who died of abuse.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
December is an exceptional film rated 10.0/10. It ranks among the finest in its genre and is an absolute must-watch for any film lover.
A high rating speaks for itself — this film found its audience and didn't let them down. Trust the collective taste.
A classic from 1973. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: any evening when you want quality cinema with no compromises.
