“Today, in other countries the same horrors are still taking place, committed by the same ‘colonels’ and defenders of democracy as there were in France at that time.”––Costa-Gavras
Co-written by acclaimed human rights filmmaker Costa-Gavras and directed by Laurent Herbiet, Mon Colonel is a gripping story of historical intrigue that echoes with the moral dilemmas of our time. After a retired colonel is assassinated, the army investigator receives a series of messages from the killer. Included in each letter are passages from a young lieutenant's Algerian war diary from the 1950s that recount a campaign of suppression and torture orchestrated by the colonel himself in the name of “a war on terror.” Mon Colonel is a compelling portrait of a military struggling to deal with a war they have not been trained to fight: a guerrilla war in which the opponent wears no uniform and melts away into the landscape to fight another day.
co-production: France/Belgium
