CGiii Comment

January 2014. Zina and Joe, around 20, return to Tunisia from the Syrian front where they were sequestrated and raped. Zina has been separated from her two-month-old child, and Joe, being pregnant, locks herself and only talks about Syrian horror through her next novel "Raped". Nadia, a lawyer, and Dora, a humanitarian doctor, accompany them in their long and difficult reconstruction; between violence of relatives, hard feedback from social networks, and misery. Nadia, also a lawyer of Driss, 21, persecuted homosexual and expelled from all schools, asks her to help Zina.
