- Note
- "Algeria, just after Independence. The inhabitants of a small Kabylian village go in search for remains of their fighters who, during the war of liberation, fell here, there, and everywhere. They want to bury them a second time, at home, where they belong. Accompanied by a relative, an adolescent joins the 'bone seekers' in search of his older brother's remains. It is the first time the boy has left his village, and he will stumble upon a new universe. But why retrieve his brother's bones when he can't even be sure they are really his? Why bury them in the village that his brother hated so much when he was alive?'--Back cover.
