Description
After an incident of police violence in a refugee camp, a music journalist somewhat unintentionally becomes involved with a refugee aid organization. He agrees to help Afghan Daoud with his asylum application and to take him in for “a couple of days” until a permanent place of residence can be found. In the meantime, his eye also falls on Mathilde, one of the leaders of the organization. Captivating French debut film that manages to address current themes in a charming yet realistic way.
