A drama centred on a young woman who claims she was the target of an anti-Semitic attack and the subsequent media sensation it creates. Jobless, soul-searching, rollerblading Jeanne lives in a Paris suburb with her widowed mother Louise. In the hope that Jeanne will be offered a job, Louise introduces her to her old flame, now a famous lawyer and Jewish activist. Meanwhile, Jeanne meets and moves in with Franck, a thuggish athlete and aspiring wrestler. Her world is soon shattered by a violent turn of events and Jeanne and the lawyer’s opposite worlds are set on a collision course, as the film becomes a complex psychological drama raising issues of race, religion and identity. Based on the play by Jean-Marie Besset this is a one-way ticket to drama!
