After the dangerous journey from Guinea, Souleymane has finally arrived in Paris. He manages to earn a living as a food delivery driver, but is still illegally in France. While he races through the busy streets of Paris on his bike, he is preparing for his meeting with the immigration office about his residence permit.

Relentless social realism in a thriller with an unyielding pace. Lead actor Abou Sangare, who arrived in France seven years earlier with no prior acting experience, delivers a stunningly authentic performance that forms the heart of the film. His race against time makes for powerful cinema.
