Freddy (played by David Douche) is an idle young man living in a town in northern France. His mother makes a living by running a small restaurant. His mother's doting makes Freddy not think about the future at all. He might be riding a motorcycle through the city with his friends, or he might be enjoying the water with his girlfriend Marley (Marjorie Cottreel). In this quiet, almost boring town, even death cannot cause too many ripples. However, some Arab immigrants changed the course of Freddy's life. The flamboyant and stubborn Arab young man Kader (Kader Chaatouf) takes the initiative to strike up a conversation with Mary, which arouses strong dissatisfaction among Freddy and his gang... The film won the 1997 British Film Institute Sutherland Award, the 1997 Cannes Film Festival's Camera d'Or Special Mention, the 1997 Chicago International Film Festival's International Film Critics FIPRESCI Award, the 1997 European Film Festival's European Discovery of the Year, the 1997 Jean Vigo Best Film Award, and the 1997 São Paulo International Film Festival's Jury Prize.
