Rebellion (French: L'Ordre et la Morale, lit. 'The Order and the Moral') is a 2011 French historical drama film directed, produced, co-written, co-edited, and starring Mathieu Kassovitz.[2][3] Set in New Caledonia in 1988 and filmed in Tahiti, the film is a dramatised version of the Ouvéa cave hostage taking, when four policemen were murdered by separatists and 30 taken hostage. The French government refused to prolong negotiations and French forces stormed the hideout, killing 19 separatists for the loss of two soldiers and freeing all hostages.[4] Kassovitz, Benoît Jaubert and Pierre Geller were collectively nominated for the 2012 Best Writing (Adaptation) César Award.
The sole cinema in New Caledonia refused to screen the film, leading to public suspicion that the decision was subject to pressure by New Caledonia's government.[5]

Plot
In New Caledonia, a French overseas territory, 30 policemen are taken hostage by a group of separatists. GIGN captain Philippe Legorjus is sent to negotiate with the group's leader, Alphonse Dianou. With him are 300 French soldiers who are ready to intervene if his efforts fail to achieve a peaceful solution. Legorjus' task is made more difficult by the differing agendas of Dianou, the army, the separatist organization's leadership and the French government back in Paris.
