The narrative delves into the distinct memories of the French war of independence as experienced by the pieds-noirs, former European settlers, and the harkis, Algerians allied with the French. It investigates the interplay between the memorial dynamics of these two groups and their connections to broader recollections of the conflict, highlighting the complexities of identity and remembrance in post-colonial France.
