Salut cousin! (1996)
Film Synopsis
Allilou works in Algeria for textiles company. He is sent to Paris by his employer to fetch a suitcase containing some clothes. He visits his cousin Mok who, a settled Parisian, has little trace of his Algerian ancestry. Having lost the address of the place where is supposed to collect the suitcase, Allilou ends up spending far longer in Paris than he had intended. He finds it hard to adjust to the pace of life in the capital and cannot wait to get back to the comparative sanity of Algeria...© James Travers
