Plot

In the middle of a neglected French suburb, a family and close friends day-dream of life and love. In his debut feature writer/director Nassim Amaouche introduces the audience to their world, revealing the ties between the various characters, crafted by a brilliant French-Arab ensemble cast that includes Jean-Pierre Bacri, Dominique Reymond, Yasmine Belmadi and Alexandre Bonnin. The film evolves around conscientious Francis, his recently liberated ex-con son Samir, neighbour (and Francis' illicit lover) Maria and her imaginative son José - who deals with all this by escaping into a Wild West fantasy world where his father is a heroic cowboy played by Gary Cooper.

Cast
gollark: I don't think this is very useful except as a learning experience though.
gollark: Also it has too many weird and inconsistent features.
gollark: Also the comments are 90% trash.
gollark: Also it being a centralized platform is fairly uncool.
gollark: Well, the "moderation" is awfully awful.
