Show Notes
Rachid Hami’s autobiographical film “For My Country” (2023, "Pour la France") tells story of his younger brother Jallal who passed away in 2012 at the age of 24 from a hazing incident at Saint-Cyr Military Academy. In real life, Rachid and Jallal grew up in Algeria and France, and they spent their final days together in Taiwan.
“For My Country” - shot in Taiwan, Monaco, and France - premiered at the Venice Film Festival in 2022. It opens in the theatre in Taiwan on September 28.
