Official synopsis
In Montreal, one evening when Christmas has fallen during Ramadan, the paths of two Algerians cross momentarily, resurrecting a past they thought was long buried. Amokrane, a taxi driver, picks up Kahina, a young, slightly disoriented woman and recognizes Kahina as his idol, a former pop star in Algeria, who he thought was dead.
