Berrhama, Walid Bouzham
Lieutenant Roque, a Frenchman, is in commandof an isolated post of thirty soldiers in the south-eastern region of Algeria. The post’s mission is toassure the security and control of a neighboring villageand its surroundings, and the displaced, unemployedmen and women, teenagers, and children living there.All the men have been drafted; among them are fouryoung Frenchmen of North African origin, as they werereferred to back then. Roque sometimes manages togain villagers’ trust, even if many are no doubt partisansof the FLN (National Liberation Front) and Algerianindependence.
Based on theautobiographical novel byClaude Sales, “La Trahison”gives a remarkable account ofthe interminable “guerregrise,” the “grey war” betweenblack and white, which isneither war nor peace. Asuffocating atmosphere, ruledby suspicion and mistruth.

K B Tilak passed awayA man who was known as a firebrand and even
spoken out against the underworld dons is no more.Kollipara Balagangadhar Tilak, who produced anddirected 15 films passed away in Hyderabad at theKIMS Hospital after a brief period of illness, at the ageof 84 years. He is survived by a son who he is said tohave adopted. His wife though, left for heavenly abodea year or so ago. A filmmaker of eminence and oneknown for his leftist ideology, Tilak did not believe inmincing words and also took on the underworld and itsefforts to control the Telugu film industry by getting afoothold first in the form of financing film production. That apart, he is best remembered for the way hecarried on a struggle and eventually even sought legal help in getting industry workers their promisedshare of five per cent of profits for working in the epic ‘Gandhi’ made by Richard Attenborough.
Closer home, Tilak introduced popular singer S. Janaki through the song ‘Nee Asha Adiyasa’ in thefilm ‘MLA’ in 1957. Not just that, he also gave popular actress and now Member of Parliament, Jayapradaa break in the dog-eat-dog world of films, when she was barely 15 years, with ‘Bhoomikosam’.
A nephew of the legendary L V Prasad, he was concern for the downtrodden and the oppressedand fought for them throughout his life and not just through his films that carried this message. He wasagainst social evils, customs and taboos. He was born in Dendaluru in West Godavari district in 1926and even at the young age of 13, joined the freedom movement. He was also arrested and jailed in theyear 1942 during the Quit India movement.
Tilak produced and directed 15 movies, including 10 in Telugu, two each in Hindi and Tamil and onein Marathi too. His Telugu films include ‘Muddu Bidda’, ‘Atta Oka Inti Kodale’, ‘Eedu Jodu’, ‘UyyalaJampala’, ‘Chitti Tammudu’ and ‘Pantaalu Pattimpulu’, all in black and white and three including ‘BhoomiKosam’, ‘Kolleti Kaapuram’ and ‘Dharmavaddi’ in colour.
