About
Casbah
|
The
Casbah (French) or as transliterated from Arabic Qasba (from
qasba, ????, 'citadel') is specifically the citadel of Algiers
and the traditional quarter clustered round it. More generally,
kasbah denotes the walled citadel of many North African cities
and towns. The word made its way into English from French
in the late 19th century (the Oxford English Dictionary says
1895), and continues to be spelled as acquired from that language.
In Rabat,
the capital of Morocco since 1912, the Casbah of the Oudaya
is the military barracks encircled by walls with gates,
built in the 16th and 17th centuries on ancient foundations.

Casbah
of Algiers
The Casbah of Algiers is founded on the ruins of old Icosium.
It is a small city which, built on a hill, goes down towards
the sea, divided in two: the High city and the Low city. One
finds there masonries and mosques of the 17th century; Ketchaoua
mosque (built in 1794 by the Dey Baba Hassan) flanked of two
minarets, mosque el Djedid (1660, at the time of Turkish regency)
with its large finished ovoid cupola points some and its four
coupolettes, mosque El Kébir (oldest of the mosques, it was
built by almoravide Youssef Ibn Tachfin and rebuilt later
in 1794), mosque Ali Betchnin (Ra?s, 1623), Dar Aziza, palate
of Jénina. To outsiders, the Casbah appears to be a confusing
labyrinth of lanes and dead-end alleys flanked by picturesque
houses; however if one loses oneself there, it is enough to
go down again towards the sea to reposition oneself. |

Subject
matter
The
film depicts an episode in the war of independence in then-French Algeria, in the
capital city of Algiers. It reconstructs the events
of November 1954 to December 1960 in Algiers during the
Algerian War
of Independence, beginning with the organization of
revolutionary cells in the Casbah.
From there, it depicts the conflict between native Algerians and European settlers
(pied-noirs) in which the
two sides exchange acts of increasing violence, leading
to the introduction of French
paratroopers, under the direction of General Massu and then Colonel Bigeard, to root
out the National
Liberation Front (FLN). The paratroopers are depicted
as "winning" the battle by neutralizing the whole FLN leadership
through assassination or capture. However, the film ends
with a coda, depicting demonstrations
and rioting by native Algerians for independence, in which
it is suggested that though the French have won the Battle
of Algiers, they have lost the war.
The
narrative is composed mostly of illustrations of the tactics
of both the FLN insurgency and the French counter insurgency,
as well as the uglier incidents in the national liberation
struggle. It unflinchingly shows atrocities being committed
by both sides against civilians. The FLN is shown taking
over the Casbah through summary execution of
native Algerian criminals and others considered traitors,
as well as using terrorism to
harass civilian French colonials. The French colonialists
are shown using lynch mobs and indiscriminate
violence against natives. Paratroops are shown employing
torture,
intimidation and murder to combat the FLN and Algerian National
Movement (MNA) insurgents.
Refraining
from the conventions of the historical epic, Pontecorvo
and Solinas chose not to have a protagonist but several
characters based on figures in the conflict. The film begins
and ends from the point of view of Ali la Pointe, played by
Brahim Hagiag, who corresponds to the historical figure
of the same name. He is a criminal radicalized while in
prison and is recruited to the FLN by military commander
El-hadi Jafar, a fictional version of Saadi Yacef played by himself.
Other
characters include the young boy Petit Omar, a street
urchin who serves as a messenger for the FLN; Larbi Ben M'hidi, one
of the top leaders of the FLN, who is used in the film mainly
to give the political rationale for the insurgency; Djamila, Zohra and
Hassiba, a trio of female
FLN militants called to carry out a revenge attack. In addition,
The Battle of Algiers used thousands of Algerian
extras in bit parts and crowd shots; the effect Pontecorvo
intended was to create the impression of the Casbah's
residents as a "chorus", communicating to
the viewer through chanting, wailing and physical effect.
