In DECEMBER, his third feature film released in 1972, Lakhdar Hamina approaches torture by taking inspiration from the story of his father, who died under abuse. In Algiers, one of the leaders of the FLN is arrested by the army, which uses the most violent methods to make the prisoners talk. The use of torture is a matter of conscience for a French officer. Playing on the field against the field, between the tortured and his torturer, in a suffocating closed-door environment, Lakhdar Hamina airs his film with flashbacks to the prisoner's childhood that herald his next film.

3rd feature by Mohamed Lakhdar-Hamina. Released in 1972.
