Pierre, a 16‑year‑old French boy, falls for 14‑year‑old Djemila, daughter of Algerian immigrants, in a low‑income housing project. Pierre’s father, an Algerian war veteran, tolerates the coexistence if the two communities stay separate, while Djemila’s brother resents the French for the war. When families discover the romance, intolerance endangers the lovers.
