Children of the Casbah is an Algerian drama set in the heart of Algiers' historic Casbah district, where a family is torn apart by the weight of war and ideological fracture. Three brothers, each caught in the contradictions of a country fighting for its liberation, gradually find common cause in the struggle for Algerian independence.

Emotionally charged and historically grounded, it captures the precise moment when private lives become inseparable from public history.
