<p>"Liberté, la nuit, a ti<x>tle with a comma in the middle for a film divided in two parts. A film in black and white with a dark side and a jovial side. The first part of the ti<x>tle evokes politics, as the story recalls the days of the Algerian War of Independence; the second part represents the mood that hovers over the eminently painful images. There isn't even a hint of daylight in the freedom of the ti<x>tle. It only lives me<x>taphorically in the darkness and languor of the night." -- desc<x>ription by Violeta Kovacsics in the book "Philippe Garrel: Filmmaking Revealed"</p>
