Samra (Sabine Ouazani) works at a hospital as a nursing assistant and lives with her mother in the Landy neighbourhood of Aubervilliers, near the Stade de France, an area undergoing extensive renovation. Her brother, Karim (Salim Kechiouche) left home six months ago, dispirited by endless dead-end jobs and unable to cope with the responsibility of being the big brother. And yet brother and sister will have to act together to thwart the schemes of a greedy landlord seeking to evict their mother from her apartment without any compensation.

But the hurt caused by his departure is still very present. Will they find a way to work together in a world ever-more eager to exclude the weak and the poor?
