Episode 2
On the eve of France鈥檚 presidential election, the nation鈥檚 first Arab candidate has victory in his grasp just as the French-Algerian Nerrouche family celebrates a grand wedding.
It is the eve of the French presidential elections (鈥淭he Election of the Century鈥� say the headlines), and Idder Chaouch, the country鈥檚 first Arab candidate has victory in his sights. Meanwhile, the French-Algerian Nerrouche family is preparing for a grand wedding. But something is up with younger cousin Krim. Linking these two worlds is heartthrob actor Fouad Nerrouche. Within a matter of hours, the threads begin to unravel on both wedding and election campaign, and the collision between the destiny of a family and the hopes of a nation becomes inevitable.
