Une minute de silence est un film dramatique français réalisé par Florent Emilio Siri, sorti le 25 novembre 1998.

Synopsis

Marek, le Polonais, et Mimmo, l'Italien, sont mineurs depuis l'âge de seize ans. Collègues et amis, leur quotidien est rythmé par des rituels : à la sortie du puits, on se retrouve entre mineurs autour de bières, on traîne dans les cabarets érotiques, on fait des courses-poursuites en voiture… Décembre 95 : ils ont vingt-cinq ans, une grève éclate. Marek veut y prendre part et trouver sa place auprès des syndicalistes ; quant à Mimmo, l'avenir dont il rêve est ailleurs. Au fur et à mesure que la grève s'intensifie, leur amitié est mise à l'épreuve.

Le film pose la question de la violence dans les rapports d’entreprises. Le fair-play est un prétexte mais reste omniprésent dans chaque scène.

The film is set in 1959 during the Algerian War. Lieutenant Terrien (Benoît Magimel), an inexperienced and naïve junior French Army officer, has volunteered for active service, rather than a safe staff post in Algiers. He is posted to Kabylie, a remote and mountainous region of Algeria, as a replacement for Lieutenant Constantin (Hicham Hlimi) who was killed during a ‘friendly fire’ incident commanding a counter-insurgency ambush operation – i.e. he was accidentally killed by his own side during a confused fire-fight. The war in Algeria is much more complicated than Lieutenant Terrien anticipated as he takes over command of his new platoon at the outpost "Mazel". Within hours of taking over his new command Terrien is ordered to lead a ‘locate and destroy’ mission into the zone interdite (the 'Forbidden Zone') to find a World War II French Army veteran named Slimane, now a local commander of Algerian rebels trying to win the independence of their homeland. Slimane is never seen in person during the film.

Angèle is a 40-year-old beautician who works at the title establishment in Paris. She has been an orphan from the age of eight, her father having killed her mother for suspected infidelity, and then killed himself when her infidelity was proved untrue. She picks up men to have short sex flings, but no longer believes in love, having hurt her former boyfriend, Jacques, whom she occasionally contacts out of loneliness, but who is never available at the same time as her. An unkempt younger man, Antoine, sees her at a cafe as she is being dumped by her latest fling, and falls in love with her. He stands outside the beauty shop to watch for Angèle, follows her to a café and declares his love for her, but she for once is lost for words and does not immediately return his feelings. Antoine also reveals that despite his feelings for her, he is engaged, but feels he is drifting away from his fiancée. However, despite her refusal to believe in love, Angèle gradually falls for Antoine.
