December (Décembre) 51 years old

During the Algerian war of independence, one of the FLN's leaders was arrested by the army, which uses the most violent methods to make the prisoners talk. The use of torture poses a case of conscience to a French officer. A play between the field against the field, between the tortured and his torturer, behind a stifling closed door.
