Shortly after 14-year-old Djibril [Dalil Abdourahim] hears that his also 14-year-old girlfriend Camilla [Maryssa Bakoum] is pregnant by him, he ends up in prison. More than 12 years later, he is released early and tries to convince his daughter Ali [Wallenn El Gharbaoui] that she – like him – has healing powers and that she is destined to end the blood feud with a neighboring neighborhood. The first part, in which we discover why Djibril ultimately ended up in prison, is a fascinating, but not very original crime drama. The second half, with a number of plot holes and a strange religious angle, is less convincing. It is innovative, but that is not immediately a recommendation.
