In a temporary accommodation centre, life revolves around provisional arrangements and resourcefulness. Mehdi Charef recalls the years he spent there, during which his experiences of Algeria transformed into memories, recorded as a multitude of delicate impressions. He knew that only education and mastering the French language would help him escape the factory, to which he is destined, and convey his anger, but also his joy at being alive.
