GASTON REVEL, A SCHOOLTEACHER IN ALGERIA
Directed by Pierre Mathiote
In 1936, Gaston Revel entered the École Normale in Algiers, where he was supposed to learn how to "educate the native." It was also during this time that he began to take an interest in politics: he was drawn to the Popular Front, then to Spanish anarchism, and finally to communism.
