A group of young Palestinian refugees in the Badawi camp in Lebanon. Just like anywhere else, they meet up, spend time together, play, discuss politics and work out projects for the future. More than elsewhere nevertheless, the starting points of the dream, returning and change, are at the heart of their cramped daily existence.
In a photographic studio, in front of the background of their choice, each takes a turn to express him or herself facing the camera, which is held, in this first film, by two women. What comes out of this portrait gallery? Less the abstract mosaic of disenchanted youth then the precise cut of faces, of bodies, each with a singular voice.
