Le Premier Homme (2011)
Août 1957. Un écrivain célèbre d’une quarantaine d’années, Jacques Cormery, rend visite à sa mère qui demeure à Alger. La ville est en état de guerre. Il se souvient de ses années d’écolier, de ses amis européens et algériens et de M. Bernard, cet instituteur qui l’a projeté vers une vie inconcevable pour un enfant né dans une famille pauvre et analphabète. Fidèle à son passé, que peut-il faire pour réconcilier ceux qui comme lui, pieds-noirs et algériens, sont nés sur le même sol, mais que le mouvement de l’histoire a transformés en ennemis héréditaires?
Directeur: Gianni Amelio
