In a neighborhood populated mainly by Arab immigrants, passers-by arrest Said, a Moroccan man who killed his ex-fiancée Susanna. The young man claims to be innocent, despite many witnesses and evidence. Once his lover was a friend of a small drug dealer Alex, who was put into the illegal business by his recidivist uncle. Seeking to change her life, Suzanne left him, trying to become her own among the Arab settlers. However, the past in the person of Alex stubbornly refused to let the girl go.
