At the turn of 1990 in Algeria, in an end-of-era atmosphere marked by the victory of the Islamists in the municipal elections, then in the interrupted legislative elections of 1991, a prelude to a decade of particularly barbaric violence, the Algerians will experience the radical Islamism, its desire to rule public and private life and a daily life of attacks, assassinations, then collective massacres, which left 200,000 dead. Literature and cinema have strived to question and bear witness to the enormous trauma of this period called the “black decade”.
