السينما الجزائرية و قضايا المجتمع (1976-1988)‎

Abstract EN

If we dwell on the subject of cinema, we doubtlessly evoke the great influence of this art on individuals and groups.

This impact has qualified it to be the best way at the hands of the great powers to impose its hegemony and market its currency, with the aim of eliminating cultural peculiarities, and thus demolishing local identities.

The ability of cinema to influence broad segments of society makes us wonder about the nature of the role that this art can play in its interaction with the identity of society in general, and the nature of the interaction of Algerian cinema with the identity of society in particular.

Despite the diversity of issues addressed by Algerian cinema, it does not depart a lot from its familiar themes.

For instance, subjects such as history, memory and society exercise their presence every time and supply the cinema in different ways and opinions affected by the social and ideological affiliations of the directors.

Therefore, we ask the following question; did the cinema succeed in raising the issues of Algerian society? Key words: Algerian cinema, community issues, privacy.
