Synopsis
Akim is a young Muslim who intends to become an imam with his brother Youssef. When the sister of a Catholic priest in his neighborhood is murdered by a neighbor, the priest decides to live with the family of the murderer because he feels that it helps them to live. Challenged by this act of charity, Akim begins a path of conversion to Christianity, against the will of his brother and of all his community. The film highlights on the one hand the instability of Akam's family after his conversion, and on the other hand, the strong family ties in this family which wants to still maintain ties with him.
