About

After her uncle’s sudden death, Lilia returns from Paris to Tunisia, where family secrets and questions about his death await.

After years in Paris, Lilia (Eya Bouteraa) returns to Tunisia for the funeral of her uncle Daly. She stays in the family home, where three generations of women have gathered. Her relatives know little about her life in Paris and nothing about her romantic life. Lilia travels with Alice (Marion Barbeau). As family, friends and acquaintances come together and memories resurface, Lilia begins to ask questions about her uncle’s sudden death. She is confronted with family secrets. Hiam Abbass plays Wahida.
