And Still, It Remains, is a 2024 Algerian movie, directed by Turab Shah and Arwa Aburawa. with a runtime of 28 minutes.
And Still, It Remains is a documentary that immerses viewers in the lives of villagers in Algeria's Hoggar Mountains — a community surrounded by ancient rock art while living with the invisible legacy of France's nuclear bomb tests conducted in the Algerian Sahara during the 1960s. When radioactive sand travelled back to France on the wind in 2021, it served as a stark reminder that colonialism's environmental damage cannot be contained or forgotten. The film explores how people endure and make meaning while living with the toxic afterlife of empire, raising urgent questions about historical accountability and the long reach of colonial destruction.
