Description
| Summary: | Yacine has grown up in France in the city of Orleans, and has little interest in his Algerian roots. He needs money but doesn't want to work. During a visit to the local employment bureau he is offered a job that only requires a commitment of one hour a day, but even that is too much for him to tolerate. He lives in trailer park outside the city and spends his nights clubing and looking for an occasional one night stand. When he's broke or hungry, he goes home to his parent's home on the tenth floor of an apartment block and gets a free meal. While visiting his old neighborhood, he has a violent argument with a former friend Djibril, who accuses Yacine of having forgotten his Algerian roots. In the midst of an identity crisis, Yacine gets on a bus to Andalucia, where he visits the Alhambra and the ancient Arab city of Granada.
