In the working-class neighborhoods of France, trust is broken between young people and the police. The slightest identity check carries within it the germs of a possible skid, rebellion or blunder. A case is emblematic of this impasse. For the first time in France, teenagers filed a complaint collectively for intentional violence against a police brigade of the 12th arrondissement of Paris. During this trial, it is the very mission of the police that will be indicted. Citizens, educators, lawyers or police officers, look for a way out and denounce the systematic use of violence that they consider illegitimate. By following their fight, this film lifts the veil on the mechanisms of this violence and the silences that surround it.

The history of decolonization from the point of view of colonized peoples, an epic story that still resonates and reverberates to this day.

This is the story of one of Europe's biggest migrations; one of people fleeing poverty or persecution and hoping for a better life. German-speaking people descended the Rhine and Danube rivers, from the 17th century until the end of the First World War, and settled in America, Eastern Europe, Russia and Africa.
