  • The young Abdelwahad has been playing the role of head of the family since the death of his father. His presence is crucial for the family unit, especially since the young man has seven brothers to feed. Her mother, Hlima, a woman of exemplary strength and character, also takes her place. She dissuades Abdelwahad when he announces his desire to go to work in France. It no longer supports the lives of young people of his age in rural areas. He refuses his misery and his lack of future, and begins the steps necessary to obtain a work permit in France.
