Seventeen-year-old Madjid and his friend, Pat, spend their days indulging in petty crime in a neglected Paris housing project. Madjid, the son of Algerian immigrants, has trouble getting a job due to widespread racism, while Pat is equally aimless. Those around them similarly struggle, with Pat's sister turning to prostitution alongside Solange, an alcoholic hooker, and single mother Josette contemplating suicide.
