Synopsis:

A sweeping epic tale of impossible love set amid the simmering tension of French-Algerian relations from the 1940s until the 1960s. French colonial rule is collapsing around 9 year-old Younes, who suddenly finds himself living with his Muslim uncle and his Catholic wife. Prejudices are rife, and yet the beautiful Emilie, visiting for piano lessons, instantly brings harmony into his world. Years later, when Emilie re-enters Younes' life as a woman, he will discover a tragic error has changed his life forever.

Algeria, the 1930s. Younes is nine years old when he is put in his uncle's care in Oran. Rebaptized Jonas, he grows up among the Rio Salado youths, with whom he becomes friends. Emilie is one of the gang; everyone is in love with her. A great love story develops between Jonas and Emilie, which is soon unsettled by the conflicts troubling the country.
