L'Ennemi intime

Mar 04, 2002
This film on torture in Algeria retraces, in its complexity, the history of torture during this war. It responds to simple questions even if the answers are complex : when, how, why and how many ? Using interviews from soldiers, confessions from the drafted contingent who practiced electric shock treatment in cold blood, stories from doubtful parachutists, interviews from Algerian victims, heads of the FLN (on the exactions they committed), politicians of the period, historians, this film scrupulously brings to its viewers all the historical, political, social and cultural data that permitted this abomination to develop. Far from just isolating these brut testimonies, these repeated horror stories (either subjected to or from those who carried them out), this film helps us understand how these practices from a different era have been institutionalised in the French Republic (Algeria was French).

Pourquoi et comment l’URSS a-t-elle créé avec le Goulag, un système de camps de travaux forcés où 20 millions de prisonniers ont été exploités et broyés ? En expliquant les mécanismes du Goulag, cette série raconte son évolution à travers les destinées hors norme de nombreux protagonistes, bourreaux et victimes, personnages célèbres et anonymes, avec une alternance du commentaire en voix off et de témoignages filmés. Pour la première fois, l’histoire du Goulag est décryptée en images avec des sources documentaires souvent inédites (archives et témoignages filmés, photos, dessins, documents déclassifiés, tatouages…) et l’expertise de Nicolas Werth, historien reconnu du Goulag.

Le communisme a suscité sur tous les continents, à travers quatre générations et sept décennies, l’engagement fraternel et généreux de centaines de millions de femmes et d’hommes qui ont servi l’un des systèmes les plus injustes et les plus sanglants de l’Histoire. « La Foi du siècle », en trois heures et demie d’images d’archives inédites, explore le mystère d’une machine totalitaire qui a séduit une part de l’humanité et restitue à chaque époque ce qui a entraîné les hommes à adhérer à cette religion terrestre.
