When Reda is released from Borgo prison, he longs to renew ties with his old Corsican friends. However, the new mafia boss does not accept him, considering him too Arab to be accepted by the Corsicans. In his own community, he is also viewed with suspicion, being too Corsican for the Arabs. His half-sister, whom he barely knows and who has been appointed judge at the new Anti-Mafia Center in Bastia, offers him a risky proposition for both of them.
