It was interesting to learn the history between Algeria and France (French Algeria 1830-1962) and the ramifications of history echoed to present days.
However the plot is very slow and unengaging, I struggled to finish.

Plutôt 3.5, j'ai préféré la 3e partie, même si j'ai apprécié en apprendre plus sur l'histoire de la famille
