Three brothers from Algeria find their lives changing because of the struggle for independence in the 1950s-1960s. The revolutionary (Sami Bouajila) believes in freedom from France's rule at all costs. The soldier (Roschdy Zem) did a tour in Indochina and has the muscle to back up his brother's idealism. The hustler (Jamel Debbouze) is just trying to make some money. All of them, in their own ways, are fighting the system.
This film is super long and super boring. It's just dull, dark, and depressing the whole way with no sense of life or joy from any of the characters. Like if you took Fiddler on the Roof and surgically removed all the fun, you would have Outside the Law.
