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.
