Tunis, summer 2010, a few months before the Revolution: Farah, 18 years old, has just graduated and her family already sees her as a future doctor. But she doesn't have the same idea. She sings in a political rock band, has a passion for life, gets drunk, discovers love and her city by night against the wishes of her mother Hayet, who knows Tunisia and its dangers all too well.

Donia, her brother Yahya, Ali and Ibrahim are celebrating Donia’s last night in Tunis before she leaves for studying in France. At one point, they decide to end the night on the beach and have some joints. At dawn, when they wake up one of them is missing.
