At the police station one June evening, Nadia, Christophe and Marco are unaware of the charges placed against them, even as they are read aloud by Ahmad. Through monologues and flashbacks, they begin to piece together the events that led them to be interrogated. Bit by bit, the trio’s world begins to collapse. As the story progresses, each character will become more fully entrapped by their convictions, losing touch with the outside world and acting out in increasingly radicalized ways. Under horrendous circumstances, Nadia’s, Marco’s and Christophe’s behaviors will cause an incident whose disastrous outcome even they could not have predicted.
