(LA VIE ME VA BIEN)
                      In a small town in northern Morocco in the mid-1990s,
                      Fouad is the only employee of the local post office.

                      life begins for Fouad, his wife and their children. As
                      time goes by, the wounds begin to show – but the de-
                      sire to live is inextinguishable.

             Algeria, February 2019. A popular pacifist uprising erupts
             against the candidacy of president Bouteflika for a 5th term,
             steadily swelling into a revolution. Nardjes, a young Algerian
