  • Summary: VENICE, ITALY (AUGUST 31, 2014) (REUTERS) CAST AND MAKERS OUTSIDE VENICE FILM FESTIVAL CASINO PALACE VARIOUS OF ACTOR VIGGO MORTENSEN GREETING FANS AND SIGNING AUTOGRAPHS BEFORE LEAVING VENICE, ITALY (SEPTEMBER 1, 2014) (REUTERS) (SOUNDBITE) (French) DIRECTOR DAVID OELHOFFEN SAYING: "The film is not about the Algerian war, there are only hints of it in the first three days. It's about two men that find themselves in a war situation, two men suffering from that war, they are two victims in a way. So, the movie is seen through the point of view of two men suffering from violence, a situation of war and that also makes it very modern, it is very topical because that is happening in so many regions around the world. It also talks about the difficulties of communication that people have and finding a way to be committed to one's ideas, the political engagement and these are things that are shared by many people."
