التاريخ في الأفلام السينمائية الجزائرية

Abstract EN

The Algerian cinema has played an exceptionally paworful role in shaping our culture's understanding of the past, an influence that derives not simply from the cinema's unequaled ability to re-create the past in a sensual mimetic form, but also from it's striking tendency to arouse critical and popular controversy tha resonates throughout the public sphere.

The aim of this article is to examine the history, the characteristics of Algerian historical films as a specific genre, one tha emerged in the earliest days of the shool of cinema which was created during the war of liberation, and that has continued into the present with works by different filmmakers such as Ahmed Rachedi, Hamina, Bouchareb and others.
