今天的阿尔及利亚：三个故事，三代人。穆拉德，一位离过婚的房地产开发商，觉得身边所有人都在逃避他。艾莎，一个年轻的女孩，在情人和未婚夫之间两难挣扎。达曼，一位神经学家，在婚礼前的一天突然被他的过去所困扰。Three stories set in today's Algeria. In Algiers, Mourad, a property developer is wealthy and more or less satisfied with his lot but he does not know how to make happy those close to him; Lila, his confused ex-wife; Rash, his frustrated second wife; Nacim, his disenchanted son. Djabil, Mourad's chauffeur, has accepted to drive Aicha and his father from Algiers to Biskra where the young woman is to be married civilly. Now, Djabil happens to be Aicha's lover. In Sétif, Dahman, a neurologist, hopes to marry Radia at last. But the promotion he expects seems to be put off forever. He is in double trouble when a woman accuses him of serious wrongdoing.
