After Saadia, a cleaning woman working at a cinema, lost two of her sons in attempts to illegally immigrate, she is devastated by the disappearance of her third son, who is also trying to emigrate the same way. Saadia embarks on a desperate search for her son, traversing the hidden corners and outskirts of Casablanca and navigating the networks of smugglers and human traffickers, hoping to find him. Along the way, she encounters Zouhair, a homeless boy who impersonates Commissioner Mouaiti and offers to help Saadia. Together, they embark on a journey that intersects with their search for both father and son.
