The main events of the film take place in the Old Medina of Larache. It is about a mother who emigrates to France with her son Idriss due to domestic issues with her husband, Mustapha, who is a photographer who chose to remain in Larache. After 30 years on their separation, the Son, while in his Parisian flat, spots a photograph that brings him together with his father in his birth-town, Larache. So, he decides to return to this city, to experience its social warmth and relive some of his childhood memories of his father and his Old Medina neighbors. His mother often told him about them, but upon his arrival he would be surprised by the changes that had occurred to the Medina where his father resided. Thus, he finds himself in a perplexing situation, stuck between staying in Larache or going back to Paris. This film is a romanticization of a person's complex relationship with place and the power of a memory that could be ignited with simple object, a photograph for example.
