Outside the Law is a 2010 French-Algerian film and the follow-up to Days of Glory, set between 1945 and 1962. Three Algerian brothers are separated after their father is killed in the 1945 Sétif massacre (the film's depiction of it caused some controversy). Abdelkadar is jailed in France for participating in demonstrations, Messaoud enlists in the French Army as a paratrooper and is sent to Indochina, and Saïd moves with his elderly mother to Paris, where he makes his fortune in the shady underground of Pigalle. Eventually the three brothers are reunited, where they get involved in the struggle for Algerian independence.

It should be noted that, despite sharing the same character names and actors as Days of Glory, the movie should be considered a standalone, rather then direct, sequel.

The following weapons appear in the film Outside the Law:

Browning Hi-Power

Colonel Faivre (Bernard Blancan) and his fellow Gendarmerie inspectors carry the Browning Hi-Power.

Norinco Type 56

Vietminh troops are armed with the Norinco Type 56. This is an error, as the Type 56 wasn't developed until after the battle of Dien Bien Phu, and because there is no evidence that the Vietminh used any AK pattern rifles during the Indochina wars.
