Operation TORCH

1942, Algeria, a French territory, is governed with fascist laws. Facing this, José Aboulker and Colette Pilafort will change the course of history. For one day, within a clever plan, they will block the collaborationist army, and allow the landing of the American allied forces. The « Torch » operation was supposed to be finished in two hours, but storms and bad weather will considerably delay the arrival of the liberators.
