Rachid Hami’s autobiographical film “For My Country” (2023, "Pour la France") tells story of his younger brother Jallal who passed away in 2012 at the age of 24 from a hazing incident at Saint-Cyr Military Academy. In real life, Rachid and Jallal grew up in Algeria and France, and they spent their final days together in Taiwan.
“For My Country” - shot in Taiwan, Monaco, and France - premiered at the Venice Film Festival in 2022. It opens in the theatre in Taiwan on September 28.
