I don't know why, but I thought about Karim Dridi's films atmosphere when I watched this one. It is far from being uninteresting, but I could never get totally inside it, I also don't now why. Karim Leklou is convincing, as usual, in the quack character, but the overall structure of the film is maybe ankward. Something is wrong or missing. However, the plot is really unusual and I like this eighteen arrondissement of Paris - Goutte D'Or - settings, it describes very well the surroundings and people living here. This is a social drama, in the very French tradition. The film maker gave us seven years ago another interesting movie: NI LE CIEL NI LA TERRE. A very unusual topic too. I also reviewed it.
