Synopsis
They are 14 years old and live on opposite sides of the Mediterranean Sea. Mustapha lives in Casablanca, works with his uncle in a little furniture factory and dreams of living in the French eldorado. Abdelkader is French, originally from Morocco. He lives in a project and dreams of going on vacation. Through an observation of their lifestyle, culture and beliefs of these two teenagers with common national and social origins, this film shows that “the grass is always greener on the other side”.
