Beschreibung
A Bookshop in Algiers charts the changing fortunes of a bookshop through the political drama of Algeria's turbulent twentieth century of war, revolution and independence. As a young man named Ryad empties it of its books, he begins to understand that a bookshop can be much more than just a shop that sells books. A moving celebration of books, bookshops and of those who dare to dream.
