As the second round of the French presidential election approaches, a far-right candidate begins to gain significant traction among the populace. This rise in popularity sparks chaos throughout Paris, creating a volatile backdrop for the events that follow.

In the midst of the unrest, a group of Muslim Arab youths—Alex, Tom, Farid, Yasmine, and Sami—seize the opportunity to orchestrate a daring heist. Their eyes are set on a valuable prize, and they come together in an abandoned alleyway to finalize their plans.

As the heist unfolds, tragedy strikes when Sami is shot during the escape. The severity of his injury prompts a frantic rush to the hospital, as Alex and Yasmine quickly realize that time is of the essence if they are to save him.

Alex and Yasmine make a desperate trip to the hospital with Sami while Tom and Farid flee with the loot. At the hospital, Sami urges Yasmine to prioritize her unborn child, making a heart-wrenching plea against her considering abortion.

Tom and Farid reach a seedy inn near the border, where they are welcomed by the innkeepers, Gilberte and Klaudia. The duo is unaware that they have walked into a trap, as the innkeepers harbor sinister intentions.

Sami’s condition worsens at the hospital, culminating in his heartfelt final moments where he urges Yasmine to leave to protect her child. Following his plea, they make the agonizing decision to abandon him just before authorities arrive.

While at the inn, Tom and Farid receive a mysterious call from their gang, but are unaware of the impending danger. They find themselves ambushed by Goetz’s men, who are laying in wait, leading to a violent confrontation.

Farid, while trying to evade capture, finds himself within the dark depths of an abandoned mine. There, he uncovers a hidden storage area filled with trapped prisoners, revealing the grim reality of their captors' deeds.

Captured, Alex and Yasmine find themselves shackled in a muddy cell, held captive by Von Geisler. In a cruel twist, he offers Alex a chance to free Yasmine, resulting in severe consequences as he retaliates with brutality.

As Yasmine attempts to escape the inn, she encounters Goetz once again. Despite her escape efforts, she finds herself back in captivity when Goetz seizes her, highlighting the cat-and-mouse dynamics between them.

In a tense atmosphere, Yasmine seizes an opportunity to take Von Geisler hostage during a toast. The situation quickly escalates into chaos, resulting in a violent confrontation that further exacerbates the already dire circumstances.

Yasmine finds herself in a horrific struggle deep in the mine where she confronts Goetz. Outnumbered and cornered, she uses her wits to fight back, ultimately overcoming him in a bloody clash.

While trying to escape, Yasmine encounters an ambush set by Gilberte and Klaudia. In a moment of desperation, she ignites a gas tank, causing a catastrophic explosion that decimates the inn and leaves her fighting for survival.

As the dust settles, Yasmine stands amidst the destruction, facing the aftermath of her harrowing journey. She pleads with Eva to escape with her, but Eva chooses to remain and care for children trapped in the mine, highlighting their starkly different paths.

Yasmine reaches a police blockade near the border, feeling the weight of her tumultuous experiences. She finally surrenders, bringing a closure to her harrowing ordeal while also realizing the extent of the societal chaos surrounding her.
