The Bouakiz family is moving. They are leaving their building in the suburbs for a house in the country. Once there, adaptation is difficult. In the middle of family tensions and relations with the rural world where suspicion and prejudices are everywhere, Farès chooses to take refuge in the memories of his former district. But this refuge will turn out to be only incidental. For Farès, the only option is to flee, to go back to the suburbs...
