Synopsis
The film starts in the middle of the night on a Casablanca street, where a woman suddenly finds herself arrested for prostitution, after a police search revealed she was carrying condoms. In the second part of the film directed by Mohamed Mouftakir, the first wife of an HIV-positive man who committed suicide, watches a video he left her explaining the reasons for his suicide. The last part of the film features two young people who meet for the first time and want to make love. The young man, a failed artist and dreamer, would like to do so without a condom. The young woman refuses in spite of the various far-fetched arguments of her companion. Finally, by chance, all the characters of the film end up at the police station.
