During the Algerian War, seven Arabs and a Kabyle cross the mountain as fedayeen united by the dream of independence.

Many years later, the group's leader recalls that episode from Le Havre before a journalist.

Joan-Lluís Lluís is a Catalan writer. His works include five novels and a collection of essays entitled Conversa amb el meu gos sobre França i els francesos. This last work, which Lluís himself describes as a pamphlet, focuses on the precarious linguistic situation of the Catalans under French administration.
