It starts with Santa Claus, who on Christmas eve gets in a taxi driven by Amokrane, an Algerian who emigrated to Canada and is more involved with Ramadan than Christmas at that moment. This Santa also ensures that Amokrane later gets a compatriot in his taxi whom he recognises as the former pop star Kahina - an idol of his, but he had thought she was dead. That evening he decides to help her with her personal problems. (International Film Festival Rotterdam)
