Peuple en marche is a 1963 documentary film.
Synopsis
In 1962, René Vautier, together with some Algerian friends, organized an audiovisual formation center to encourage a "dialogue in images" between the two factions. A film was edited from that experience, but the French police partially destroyed it. The images that were saved represent an unprecedented historical document: They tell of the Algerian War and the history of the ALN (National Liberation Army), as well as showing life after the war and, particularly, the reconstruction of the cities and the countryside after the war of Independence.Comments

Afrique 50 est le premier film anticolonialiste français. À l’origine, il s’agit d’une commande de la Ligue française de l’enseignement destinée à montrer aux élèves la mission éducative menée dans les colonies françaises d’Afrique de l'Ouest. Mais, sur place, le réalisateur, âgé de 21 ans seulement, décide de témoigner de la réalité : le manque de professeurs et de médecins, les crimes commis par l’armée française au nom du peuple français, l’instrumentalisation des populations colonisées… Le film fut interdit pendant plus de 40 ans et valut à René Vautier plusieurs mois d’emprisonnement.

En 1954 à Alger, le Front de libération nationale (FLN) diffuse son premier communiqué : son but est l'indépendance nationale vis-à-vis de la France, et la restauration de l'État algérien. Ali la Pointe propose des parties de bonneteau. Repéré par la police, il s'enfuit mais se fait agresser par un passant, il réplique et se fait tabasser par le reste du groupe. Rattrapé par la police, il se fait arrêter. Emprisonné, il assiste par la fenêtre de sa cellule à l'exécution d'une peine de mort par guillotine sur un nationaliste. Le FLN le contacte.
