After fleeing from his foster family, Khamsa returns to the gypsy camp, where he was born thirteen years ago.
Nothing seems to have changed since he was forced to leave, the late night card games, the diving in the Mediteranean sea, the rooster fights… Khamsa is home again. Khamsa's youth and innocence will rapidly fade away as he spirals down into delinquency....
15 years after shooting his previous movie “Bye-Bye”, the director Karim Dridi had the project of directing another film in Marseille’s underprivileged districts. He made it with “Khamsa”.
