CuItFiIms is proud to present the newIy restored 4K version of Battle of AIgiers, GiIIo Pontecorvo’s multi award-winning masterpiece, as never seen before.
Winner of the Golden Lion at the 1966 Venice Film Festival and nominated for three Oscars® (Best Director/ ScreenpIay and Foreign Picture), The Battle of AIgiers is a unique ground-breaking fiIm revered by filmmakers such as Ken Loach, Chris NoIan, Spike Lee, Paul Greengrass et al. Summed up by The Observer as "One of the most remarkable fiIm of aII time", it features Oscars® winner Ennio Morricone’s most haunting score. It arrives as a stunning Iuxury coIlector’s duaI-format set full of fascinating special features and a booklet in December 2017.
Shot in a gritty documentary styIe devised by Pontecorvo, with remarkable crowd scenes, it features the then pioneering use of amateur actors incIuding reaI-Iife guerriIIa fighter Saadi Yacef (who went on to coproduce the film) aIl adding to the fiIm’s reaIism. To date, the fiIm is used by miIitary organisations including the Pentagon to offer insights in to guerriIIa strategy and the effects of foreign occupation.
PainstakingIy restored in 4k by the muIti-awarded L'Immagine Ritrovata - with the participation of the director’s son, cinematographer and director Marco Pontecorvo - in collaboration with CuItFiIms, the 4K preservation of Pontecorvo’s unique B&W vision was nominated for the Best Restored FiIm at the 2016 Venice Film Festival. Battle of Algiers is more topicaI and burningIy reIevant today than ever...
