La Gang

Hayman, a teenager from the Maghreb, is invited by Sara to her party, in the same house where Hayman’s mother works as a maid. Accompanied by Pereira and Tano, his lifelong friends, he embarks on a journey full of confrontations. They discover that life is not as they thought it would be and that, in the end, a will doesn’t always mean there’s a way.
