Overnight, the French Tunisian boy Marwann became a star: by chance, he ended up on the front page of a Paris newspaper, becoming a symbol for the Arab Spring. However, the teenager is more preoccupied with his turbulent emotions for his friend Sygrid than with the political revolution in Tunisia.
As the Jasmine Revolution sends ripples through the Arab nation, the world of a lovesick Tunisian-French teenager in Paris is rocked by the tremors of a first crush. Activism takes many shapes and forms in this endearing debut, which thoughtfully grapples with the intangible ideals of a homeland.
