"Here, we drown Algerians!" - On Yasmina Adi's "Ici on noie les Algériens" (2011)
This is the story of the now largely forgotten “dark night” of October 17, 1961, "the bloodiest act of state repression of street protest in Western Europe in modern history".
Adapted from Sina Rahmani, "It's when there's more than one that there are problems"
