This article focuses on the work of four Algerian émigré directors working in France since the early 1980s: Merzak Allouache, Abdelkrim Bahloul, Okacha Touita and Mahmoud Zemmouri, in order to address questions of transnational cinema(s) in a specifically postcolonial context. It considers how selected films by these directors borrow from the traditions of French (European) cinema and combine them with the specificities (and difference) of the Algerian diaspora in France. In the process, it explores how such transnational representations bring into question the validity of both national cinema and cultural identity as rigid and fixed concepts in contemporary (postcolonial) France.
