Jean-Jacques spent 9 years in prison for armed robbery. Upon his release, he returns to the neighborhood where he grew up – but things have changed. The country is in crisis, the young have taken over the business, and his old friends are pressuring him to get back in the game… Maybe it’s time for Jean-Jacques to start asking himself the right questions. But he risks slipping back into his old ways when Nassim, a friend he met in prison, calls on him for help. At a crossroads, Jean-Jacques is caught in a vice between his contradictions: a mixed-race man adopted by white parents, a convert to Islam, torn between two women, and caught between reintegration and delinquency… Will the search for his roots allow him to make a fresh start?
