Synopsis
They were sent to Algeria during the "events" in 1960. Two years later, Bernard, Rabut, Février, and others returned to France. They remained silent and lived their lives. But sometimes, it takes almost nothing, like a winter birthday or a small gift, for the past to suddenly come back into the lives of those who thought they could deny it, even forty years later.
