The Devil and the Bicycle

Hantirah has her future laid out. Esma dances, in search of freedom. On the eve of Aid, their thwarted love is sung between the streets of Barbès and a queer cabaret, theaters of young people of Arab origin, diverse and modern.

Jeanne and Walid are two disillusioned high school students who, to escape their anxiety, spend their days hanging out at the foot of a business district. It's into this world that Axel, the boy who makes Walid's heart beat, joins them, transforming the evening into an adventure tinged with desire, tension and transgression. A nocturnal experience that sheds light on the complexities and desires of contemporary youth, in a setting that is both raw and fascinating.
