KlappentextAlgeria, 1956. Fernand Iveton, a young thirty-year-old communist worker, decides to show his support for the FNL's independence cause against France by planting a bomb. Iveton's peculiarity is that he is a pied noir, that is, a white Frenchman born in Algeria. The bomb is defused before it explodes and the terrorist trainee ends up arrested. He is interrogated and tortured and, despite there being no victims, he ends up sentenced to death. His lawyers ask for clemency from the highest authorities, among others from the Minister of Justice at the time, the future president François Mitterrand. But forgiveness does not come and Iveton will become the only pied noir executed by the French government during the long Algerian war. Was he a hero or a terrorist? An idealist or a criminal? A champion of Freedom against colonialism or a traitor to his country?
