Synopsis
Au sein d'un groupe de jeunes femmes, étudiantes à Alger, durant la décennie noire, Nedjma (personnage interprété par Lyna Khoudri), étudiante en français, rêve de devenir styliste de mode. Elle se faufile régulièrement avec son amie Wassila hors de sa résidence universitaire pour aller en boîte de nuit et en profite pour vendre ses créations à d'autres jeunes filles. Mais elle est confrontée à la violence de la guerre civile et aux pressions de plus en plus fortes pour qu'elle se conforme aux normes morales et vestimentaires dictées par les islamistes. Sa soeur Linda est assassinée. Elle refuse de se soumettre et décide d’organiser un défilé de mode au sein de sa résidence universitaire, et de dessiner les modèles sur le thème du haïk, la grande pièce rectangulaire qui fait le vêtement traditionnel aux femmes algériennes. Confrontée à de nombreux obstacles, dont la destruction de sa collection par des extrémistes islamistes, elle et ses amies décident d'organiser le défilé coûte que coûte. Il sera interrompu par des hommes armés de mitraillettes, et Nedjma n'échappera à la mort que de justesse.Actors
