518    Originally produced by Kino Lorber in 1962. 
520    The first and only narrative feature by American 
       documentarian James Blue (Oscar®-nominated for A Few Notes
       On Our Food Problem), The OLIVE TREES OF JUSTICE holds the
       dual distinctions of being the only French film to have 
       been shot in Algeria during the Algerian War, and to have 
       been the winner of the Prize of the Society of Film and 
       Television Writers at the inaugural Critics' Week at the 
       Cannes Film Festival in 1962. Filmed in Algiers and the 
       surrounding countryside during the late stages of the 
       Algerian War, under the pretext that it was a documentary 
       about the wine industry, the film depicts the Algerian 
       struggle for independence from the French by concentrating
       on a young “pied-noir” (Frenchman of Algerian descent) 
       who returns to Algiers to visit his dying father. His 
       memories of boyhood on his father's farm are told in 
       flashbacks with a lush serenity that contrasts to the 
       teeming, tank-filled streets of contemporary Algiers. 
       Giving the film a neorealist tone by shooting in a 
       documentary style and enrolling a cast that consisted 
       largely of non-professional actors, including author Jean 
       Pelegri who wrote the autobiographical novel from which 
       the film is based, Blue tells a powerful story of common 
       people living and struggling in their daily lives, while 
       providing a valuable testimony to the complexity of the 
       Algerian situation in that time period.
