Synopsis
The tentacles of Jihad and the Islamic State in Europe are increasingly poisonous. That is what is shown in the confessions of families who have seen their adolescent children, many of them Christians, agnostics or atheists of origin and without a Muslim family, have become the most radical Islam and have gone to the Middle East Fight with the ISIS and have even planned terrorist attacks in Europe. It is the story of Sonia, a 17-year-old girl who has been about to go to Syria to fight with the DAESH, all because she believes that her family will have a more pleasant life or Mélanie, daughter of Catholic parents, and that she wants to change the world, a teenager who plays the cello and who begins to embrace radical Islam after feeling that her life is full of decadence. They are the stories of girls who have been captured by such a powerful sect called the IS. Directed by Marie-Castille Mention-Schaar. Presented in the Official Section at the 54th Gijón International Film Festival.
