520    Dramatizes the harrowing events of 1957, a key year in 
       Algeria's struggle for independence from France. Recreates
       the tumultuous Algerian uprising against the occupying 
       French in the 1950s. As violence escalates on both sides, 
       the French torture prisoners for information and the 
       Algerians resort to terrorism in their quest for 
       independence. Children shoot soldiers at point-blank range,
       women plant bombs in cafés. The French win the battle, but
       ultimately lose the war as the Algerian people demonstrate
       that they will no longer be suppressed.
