SYNOPSIS

Synopsis (English): Switzerland, today. When Nelson, a 40-year-old Black African man, is thrown to the ground after a teenager snatches his bus ticket at a station, the shock is brutal: Switzerland—the country where he lives, where he works as a middle school teacher, and where he was naturalized—sees him as a liar. This marks the beginning of a radical awakening, fueled by anger and frustration. Confronted with racism and prejudice, Nelson faces a series of struggles—both in the streets and within himself—the harshest of all being the battle with his own identity.
