Suburbs of a big city. Omar, a worker from Maghreb, feels uncomfortable with women. Ambivalent, either he's fascinated by them, or they make him afraid. When he meets Rita, a hooker, he tries to surpass his complex, discovering his own sexuality.

A prostitute dressed in a leopard coat, her pair of pumps in hand, goes to a bar where she lights a cigarette and orders a beer. His extravagant attitude intrigues the customers who look at it insistently. As she leaves, one of the customers of the bar, rather shy, follows her home..

O rediteljki
Latifa Said je deset godina radila kao socijalna radnica i nastavnica. Pohađala je časove profesionalne fotografije i radila u medijima, kao što su Télérama i GéoAdo, ali i za organizacije kao što su Liga protiv raka i Grad Pariz. Njen izbor da se bavi fotografijom bio je vrlo promišljen, jer je znala da ako želi da se bavi filmom, mora da savlada vizuelni jezik. Nastavila je da se bavi fotografijom, ali je istovremeno pisala i scenarije, kako za kratke, tako i za dugometražne filmove. Njen scenario za kratki film Jours intranquilles osvojio je prvu nagradu SIRAR programa u okviru Filmskog festivala u Obanju.
