    the universes of Georges
    Generous theme, fair perspective about pied - noir in Algeria, gentle exploration of roots of conflicts , identity, friends and large sense for family and admirable portrait of Georges proposed by Claude Brasseur. An olive oil entrepreneur, his presence in Paris from Oran, a young surgeon and his family, compromises, friendship and money problem, fights and the shadows of past. A honest film about delicate realities.
