Synopsis

During the period of colonization in Morocco, some Moroccans from foreign schools experienced the tearing between the traditional Quranic school (el-Msid) and the modern European school. If the Msid carries the weight of identity and tradition, the modern school imposes itself by the force of the attraction of knowledge and culture, generating a situation of alienation ... Bouchaib, the Moroccan child who joined the French school after a passage to the Koranic school, will live the experience of identity alienation which will not even spare his name ....
