Synopsis

After she decides to venture outside of her neighbourhood for the first time in her life, 70-year-old Zayane Millia, a traditional, illiterate Algerian mother, sets events in motion that will bring her children together for the first time in more than ten years at their mother’s home.

Meanwhile, their elderly mother has taken a trip with a friend to see her first employer in Algeria, a woman she hasn’t seen in more than fifty years and who has a mysterious box to give her.

Culture shock and family histories are interwoven with ever-present memories of the war in Algeria, the country that binds these three women together.
