Gillo Pontecorvo's the Battle of Algiers | 
When searching for Pontecorvo's classic film The Battle of Algiers on my library's website, the famous song Alger Alger by the renowned Sephardic Algerian songwriter Lili Boniche came up, and I had to share it with you. This video shows old postcards of Algiers with the song as a musical background: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4Aw_Xl0UB4 (as often with oriental music, the song picks up after the 2-min mark)
