Synopsis
A
large number of indigènes (Algerians, Tunisians and
Moroccan Goumiers) were enrolled in the French First Army of
the
Free French Forces, formed to liberate France after the Nazi occupation
in World War II. The film portrays the recruitment of these soldiers
and their participation in the campaigns in Italy, southern France and
Alsace. The army had been recruited in Africa in French colonies
outside the control of the Vichy regime which collaborated with German
commissioners. Four Indigènes in a mobile corps with a reputation for endurance and courage in close combat are sent to the front line, each with a different personal purpose as they fight their way through the Italian Campaign and on to Operation Dragoon to liberate France. One seeks booty, one has joined the army to escape poverty in hopes that it will be his family, one wants to marry and settle in France while the other is fighting in the hope of equality and recognition of the rights of the colonised Algerians. They encounter only discrimination in the army |
