Drama
Young Moroccan Jallel (Sami Bouajila) comes looking for the lights of Paris but instead finds black-market jobs and crowded hostels. Yet he also discovers a bracing solidarity between newcomers and outcasts from French society, especially Lucie (Elodie Bouchez, from "Dreamlife of Angels"), a disturbed young Frenchwoman who will give Jallel a distinctive experience of his new country.
