Sacre Bleu

To celebrate the release in the UK of the powerful French drama 'Of Gods And Men', we've selected French film as the theme of today's quiz. Set in 1990s Algeria, 'Of God's And Men' portrays the challenges and dilemas faced by a group of French Cistercian monks when the harmony of their villages existance is threatened by violent Islamic fundamentalists. Confronted by a real test of faith, the monks must decide to stay or go, while the film begs the question if they belong in their surroundings.
