CÉLESTIN, MOINE DE TIBHIRINE
CELESTIN, MONK OF TIBHIRINE
Célestin Ringeard, from Nantes, had a very unusual fate. He was murdered by the G.I.A in 1996 after devoting his life to Algeria where he was a soldier during the war. This is the portrait of an exceptional man whose personal fate gets mixed to the collective fate of the six other monks of the Atlas who were at the heart of the Algerian tragic situation.
Célestin Ringeard est l’un des sept moines assassinés en Algérie par le G.I.A. en 1996.
