In a housing project south of Algiers, in the mid-1990s. Although Djaber and Yamina are neighbors, they do not know one another. For each of them, meeting the opposite sex is so difficult they have almost stopped believing it to be possible. Over the course of a few days, however, what had previously only been a muffled and distant violence breaks out right in front of them, changing their lives forever.

A metà degli anni Novanta, in un quartiere periferico a sud di Algeri, Djaber e Yamina sono vicini di casa ma non si conoscono. Per entrambi, incontrarsi tra ragazze e ragazzi è talmente difficile che hanno quasi smesso di crederci. Poi però, nel giro di qualche giorno, quella che fino ad allora era stata soltanto una violenza sorda e lontana deflagra davanti a loro, cambiando per sempre il loro destino.

DE

In einer Siedlung im Süden Algiers Mitte der neunziger Jahre wohnen Djaber und Yamina in direkter Nachbarschaft, ohne sich zu kennen. Für beide ist es ähnlich schwierig, sich zwischen Mädchen und Jungs zu treffen, sodass sie fast schon den Glauben an eine solche Möglichkeit aufgegeben haben. Nur wenig später jedoch explodiert das, was sich bislang als Gewaltakt in einer dumpfen Ferne abspielte, in ihrer unmittelbaren Nähe und verändert ihrer beiden Schicksale für immer.
