Contents/Summary

Summary
The film follows two 14 years old boys and live on either side of the Mediterranean. Mustapha lives in Casablanca, works with his uncle in a small furniture factory and dreams of joining the French Eldorado. Abdelkader is French of Moroccan origin. He lives in a city and dreams of his holidays in Morocco. Through the living conditions, cultures and beliefs of these two adolescents of the same national and social origin, this film reflects the idea that "life is necessarily better elsewhere".
