Damien habite dans une cité de banlieue parisienne. Il a grandi dans une famille dont la mère était une fervente militante en faveur des droits de l'Homme. Vingt ans plus tard, alors qu'il se promène, un petit garçon nommé Bahzad le heurte. Le gamin fuit, car lui et sa mère sont sans-papiers et ont peur d'être expulsés. Damien a alors une solution toute trouvée : prétendre aux autorités être le père de Bahzad. Mais son exploit fait le tour du quartier et toutes les mères sans-papiers du coin veulent la même chose. Damien monte alors, avec la complicité de sa sœur, avocate, et de ses potes, une association d'hommes prêts à reconnaître tous les enfants sans-papiers du quartier et prend le risque d'enfreindre la loi par solidarité.
