История о забытой Богом земле, отрезанной от всего мира. Черные мундиры заслонили для её жителей солнце надежды, и единственный звук среди всеобщего молчания — прощальный стон уходящих вдаль поездов, увозящих обреченных на смерть. Для того чтобы открыть людям истину в этом страшном мире, вывернутом наизнанку, необходимо солгать. Но тому, кто придумает спасительную ложь, она может стоить жизни.

Середина 90-х, Париж охвачен беспорядками. Из-за жёстких действий полиции арабский подросток Абдель оказывается в больнице. Его друг Винс находит на улице полицейский револьвер и вместе с товарищами Юбером и Саидом отправляется мстить. Друзья проводят один долгий день между Парижем и его пригородами, рэпом и боксом, мелким хулиганством и произволом властей. В истории «общества, которое падает вниз», ненависть неизменно порождает ненависть.

Four generations of Oppenheim men gather in Paris for Isaac's 90th birthday. He's "Romeo," still a lady's man, waiting to hear from a woman to whom he has proposed, threatening suicide if she says no. They gather at Isaac's grandson's, Ben, who lives with Peggy and their son Mathias who's 10. Joining them, from Israel, is Isaac's son Elie. Against a backdrop of Elie's attempts to call his ex-wife, Ben and Peggy's marital difficulties, Mathias's budding sexuality, everyone's love of chess and practical jokes, Ben's house (shifting dangerously on its foundation), and the twentieth-century struggles of the Jews, the film explores their relationships and Isaac's aging.

A long tracking shot through the works of the great Saul Steinberg. His world of signs is beautifully revealed: a world of subtlety and cleverness, bitter humour and soft cruelty.
