Ridha Dadoua
In this powerful historical drama, director Djaffar Gacem reconstructs a pivotal moment in Algerian memory — the eve of the May 8, 1945 massacres — through the story of a family torn between national identity and fascination with French culture. The cast delivers strong performances, and the cinematography beautifully captures both internal and external tensions. Despite some overly didactic moments, the film successfully touches the emotions and raises deep questions about awareness and identity.
Assia Benkaret
In this film, Belkacem Hadjaj takes us on a ride through the streets of Algiers with Hassan, a taxi driver who meets characters that reflect the many faces of society. Blending humor with subtle bitterness, the film offers light social critique, supported by natural acting and a realistic atmosphere that makes the experience sincere and enjoyable.
Dr. Ouissal Saidouni
"Awlad El Halal" is a bold Algerian series that redefined social drama. Set in a working-class neighborhood in Oran, it explores the lives of young men caught between injustice, poverty, and the search for dignity. The script is emotionally intense and full of tension, with a standout performance by Abdelkader Djeriou. The series doesn’t sugarcoat reality—it confronts it head-on.
Dr. Soumia Benamara
The series El Rebaa reflects life in Algerian popular neighborhoods, focusing on the intertwined stories of four women facing social and cultural challenges. The work stands out for its high realism and detailed depiction of social diversity, supported by a strong cast performance. Despite a sometimes slow pace, the series offers an honest portrayal of women's issues in Algerian society.
