Overview

So Young a Peace is a landmark Algerian drama and the first feature-length fictional film produced in Algeria following independence. Directed with quiet sensitivity, the film confronts one of the most urgent yet overlooked consequences of armed conflict: what happens to children who have known nothing but war. Freed at last, these children struggle to rediscover how to play — and find themselves reaching instinctively for the only games they know, games of soldiers and combat. A meditative and humanist work that poetically examines how war reshapes childhood and whether peace can ever be truly taught.
