Karin takes out of the drawer a photograph album of far away and unknown faces. Mohamed goes back on his childhood places along with his mother and his older sister. Karin and Mohamed were born in France. Their parents settled down at the beginning of the 60's. Their father, both dead, lived the War of Algeria and never talked about it. Today, their children go back on the road of this history.
2007, France, DigiBeta, Color and Black&White, 31 minutes.
