Film Synopsis
The Arab spring has made the headlines in Paris, but 14-year-old Marwann
is more interested in the usual problems of a typical boy of his age - namely
how to be popular amongst his peers, how to evade his parents' ever-watchful

kudos he could possibly have hoped for. Apparently, he has been singled
out as a symbol of the Tunisian revolution, and he is quick to exploit his
new-found celebrity. As he pursues Sygrid he begins to take more of
an interest in his Arab roots...
