Director:Ahmed El Maamouni

Summary:

This film operates on a double level: that of the visual lightness of the first level of the story, enriched by Moroccan folk music, and that of the deep graveness which runs through the narrative in half-tone. Amin, a young architect living in Paris, returns suddenly to Fes, Morocco, where his uncle is dying. He has not spoken with the man who brought him up since he left his hometown ten years earlier. His visits to the hospital revive deep wounds of his painful childhood.
