Kamel is eleven. He is already head of family. In his village, in the western part of Algeria, he is called "the terrorist's son" and therefore he and his family are outlawed by society...

Despite the apparent calm, wounds in the village have not healed. Victims of the violence feel betrayed. With bitterness and sometimes hatred, they watch those who raped, tortured and killed move freely among them.
Through Kamel and his family's daily life, their stories and testimonies, those of the other villagers, we try to understand the situation in a country torn apart by hate, hope but also forgiveness.
