This is the story of the late Omar Mukhtar, an elderly rebel who spent the last two decades of his life struggling against European colonialism and specifically Italian Fascism in Libya. Note that some of the characters in this dramatization (like Sandrini) are fictional, but almost certainly had numerous real‐life analogues.

As long as you can tolerate depictions of warfare, there is no better gift that you could give me than merely watching this film. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
