Nasreddine Dinet is an Algerian documentary by Rabah Laradji produced by the ONCIC and released in 1977.

Étienne Dinet (إتيان دينيه), born March 28, 1861 in Paris, where he died on December 24, 1929, was a French painter and lithographer. He was one of the leading representatives of Orientalist painting at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.

Awarded a scholarship in 1884, Dinet undertook his first trip to southern Algeria, to the Bou-Saâda region. The Naili culture had a profound impact on him, and he would return there many times until he settled in his first Algerian studio in Biskra in 1900. In 1905, he bought a house in Bou-Saâda, where he spent three-quarters of the year. In 1907, on his advice, the Villa Abd-el-Tif was built in Algiers, modeled on the Villa Medici in Rome.

Having lived much of his life in Algeria, he adopted the name Nasreddine Dinet (نصر الدين ديني) after converting to Islam. On January 12, 1930, he was buried in the Bou-Saâda cemetery, where a museum housing many of his works bears his name.
