this movie be not about action and it be not about special effect and it be about injustice . the person portray in this movie do not die and nor do they suffer tremendous pain . but and for no valid reason and their liberty be take from them because of the law instated to counter terrorist act happen during la crise doctobre . you can not compare this movie to a war film because it isn not and neither can it be compare to a drama because it be not that either . it be make in a documentary structure and sometimes show u the people involve and sometimes and show u the impression of the actor play them and and how they be disturb by the whole idea . this movie be base on testimony of people detain without recourse during the crisis of october 1970. this film be mean a a reminder for everyone that and as much a government can be civilize and as much it can abuse it power to protect itself with fear . if you watch this movie and do not expect twist and turn and do not expect violence and do not expect special effect . do not expect anything but humanity . the mere fact that someone can be deprive from freedom and even just for a few day and can leave a sour taste . i do not think this movie be make to be a statement and but rather to be disturb and a the event it tell .
