Everyone knows the name of Samuel Paty, but few people really know his story. On October 16, 2020, Samuel Paty, professor of History-Geography, was murdered at the end of his college. In the light of investigations and trials, this film looks back on his last eleven days, and the gear that led to his tragic death.

It is through the voice of Salim, newly arrived in Canada, that we follow the journey of six immigrants who, cramped in a van, earn their living by distributing advertising leaflets. Despite their diverse origins, they share the same nostalgia for their native land and the same daily worries, which they approach with scathing humor. Among them is a young boy of Russian origin, Sacha. The biting cold and the endless stairs will get the better of his tenacity. However, Sacha will come to surprisingly break the routine of Salim and his companions...

Malek, in his forties, single, has just moved to Montmartre and will soon welcome his nephew Ryiad, who has just arrived from Algeria, into his home. Together they discover Barbès, the neighborhood of the Algerian community, very lively, despite the current health crisis. His meetings with local figures will allow Malek to find a part of himself that he had buried, and to reconcile with his origins.

It’s Christmas Eve, but the Algerian taxi driver living in Canada is more caught up in Ramadan. By chance he picks up a compatriot, a former pop star thought dead, and the evening gets more interesting.
