Morocco, from the past to the present. Five people who are connected to each other – Abdallah, Salima, Joe, Hakim, and Inès – without realizing it. Different faces, different struggles, but one same breath. One city, Casablanca as a fragment of reality, as the myth of a film entirely shot in Hollywood studios, which reality has come back to claim.

Touda is a Sheikha, a traditional Moroccan singer. Performing in the bars of her provincial town under the gaze of men, she plans to leave for the lights of Casablanca in search of recognition and to ensure a better future for her deaf-mute son.

The film follows two brothers over the course of a decade. While they begin as kids in search of thrills in the sprawling slums of Morocco’s Sidi Moumen, we witness their gradual, and ultimately shocking, radicalisation.

The film restores the usual atmosphere created by the fans during clasicos Barca vs Reak. The story takes place in popular district, where a powerful barbu(Boulahwajeb), leads a hunt for the barca fans. Sample of all the arenas of a wrestling, a real battle and a squabble that rarely stops ans knows its apogee at the approach of each classico.

Larbi sells sandwiches in his mobile cart and wants to develop himself, while his younger brother Abbas is unemployed. Their lives change when Abbas discovers a secret cooking recipe that will be the origin of their fortune, but the cost of success will come at the expense of their relationship.
