The programmer’s eye

It is the end of the summer season for Yanis and Noé. Before school starts, the two friends meet up one last time to say goodbye on the common field of their passion for the rapper Jul. It is a film gorged with the sugar and the tart taste of the spicy candies that make you cry. The teenage elation of a snap-chat generation.
