At the end of the 1990s in a working-class area of Casablanca, young Abdellah tries to find his own identity spending most of his days cruising the streets of Morocco for anonymous sex, when he’s not tending to his family duties. His sexual awakening is complicated further by his forbidden desires for his much older and protective brother. In Geneva, ten years later, Abdellah, determined never to give in, has to take risks to be able to finally live his own life. (Madrid International Gay and Lesbian Film Festival)
