Synopsis:

The film takes place in a poor suburb of Paris. Khalid Belkacem (Booder) failed his Diplôme national du brevet at 15 years old, his driving exam, his BAFA and even his baccalauréat général (BCG). In a nutshell, he's a complete failure by French standards. However, by a stroke of luck, he becomes the first French cop hired by 'affirmative action'.

25-year-old Khalid Belkacem has failed at everything: college education, summer camp instructor's permit, driver's license, and even his BCG. He never expected to become the first 'positive discrimination' member of the police force. But as his mother says: 'That's France for you! A country where everyone has a chance.'

A governemental affirmative policy pushes Khalid Belkacem to become a police officer. But Khalid has never been good at something… Furthemore, he takes the job of his future stepfather!
