SYNOPSIS

-

While Morgane is investigating the murder of a prominent Belgian woman by Cyrus, a young migrant whom she had taken into her home, the policewoman is intrigued by the suspect’s profile. Cyrus is a talented artist and it seems he had no reason to attack this patron of the arts who was helping him to obtain refugee status.

Among Cyrus’s personal effects, Morgane became interested in a strange notebook.

She found drawings illustrating a terrible story: the life of Alya, a young girl married by force in the Middle East, who risked her life to flee to join Cyrus, her beloved.

Morgane is fascinated by this story, some aspects of which seem to resonate with her own. She wonders about the price of freedom here and elsewhere: she herself suffered male violence within the police force, and brought it out into the open. Since then, she has paid the price on a daily basis.
