Synopsis
Passionate Sephardi filmmaker Antoine travels to his birthplace, Algiers, with his young son to present his new film: an account of his childhood in mid-20th century Algeria during the country's Independence War. As he wanders through the city, the filmmaker immerses us in the moments of happiness, laughter, and tears of his childhood, the final moments of Algeria's pre-independence period– spent between school, friends, and his Sephardic family.
