The film brings together eyewitnesses including a priest, a peacekeeper, a couple of workers sympathetic to the Algerian cause, a lawyer, municipal councilors of Paris including Claude Bourdet (then one of the leaders of the PSU and journalist to France Observateur), Gerard Monatte, the future police union leader, and the editor and writer Francois Maspero.
