Synopsis

Dans la ville de Beyrouth, Yasser, réfugié palestinien, est chef de chantier dans une entreprise de travaux public. Tony, un Libanais chrétien, vit avec son épouse Shirine, enceinte, dans un appartement surplombant le chantier où travaille Yasser. Ce dernier tente de réparer la gouttière de l'appartement de Tony qui s'y oppose violemment. Yasser profère alors une insulte envers Tony. Il refuse de lui présenter des excuses et, dans un moment de colère suite à des propos racistes sur les Palestiniens proférés par Tony, frappe le Libanais. Ce simple conflit entre deux hommes dégénère jusqu'à des procès dont le retentissement médiatique va jusqu'au sommet de l'État car il ravive les tensions entre les groupes ethniques vivant au Liban.

Chimo (played by Mohammed Khouas) is a nineteen-year-old self-described loser who lives in an Arab ghetto with his mother in post-9/11 Marseille. Unemployed, he turns down an opportunity to study (free of charge) at a writers' school for teenagers in Paris despite showing real promise as a writer. Instead, he wastes his day hanging around with other unemployed and aimless "losers". He falls for Lila (Vahina Giocante), a beautiful blonde sixteen-year-old who just moved into the neighborhood with her eccentric and sexually abusive aunt. Lila is a self-styled "bad girl" who presents an overtly sexual persona; they begin a tentative romance after Lila invites him to look up her skirt while she rides a swing.

In April 1975, civil war breaks out; Beirut is partitioned along a Muslim-Christian line and is divided into East and West Beirut. After the line was created, Tarek is now considered to live in west Beirut (the Muslim part and Tarek is Muslim himself) and is in high school, making Super 8 movies with his friend, Omar. At first the war is a lark: school has closed (and is situated in east Beirut no longer accessible to Muslims since Christians build up walls to defend themselves), the violence is fascinating, getting from West to East is a game. His mother wants to leave the country; but his father refuses. Tarek spends time with May, a Christian, orphaned and living in his building. By accident, Tarek goes to an infamous brothel in the war-torn Olive Quarter, meeting its legendary madam, Oum Walid (name's translation: Walid's Mom). He then takes Omar and May there. Family tensions rise. Later on and as he comes of age, the war moves inexorably from adventure to a nationwide tragedy.

Kurosagi est un film basé sur la série de 2006 "Kurosagi". Kurosaki, le héros de cette histoire est un garçon dont la famille a été décimée par la faute d'un "Shirosagi" il y a six ans. Depuis ce jour, il n'a d'autre objectif que de venger les siens et s'est juré, pour cela, de détruire tous les escrocs de ce monde. Avec l'aide du vieux Katsuragi qui lui fournit les informations dont il a besoin, Kurosaki se glisse dans la peau de victimes potentielles afin de mieux piéger les escrocs de l'intérieur et dédommager les victimes de ces derniers. Pour devenir un escroc impitoyable, il a dû faire des sacrifices et, notamment, celui de ne plus avoir d'attaches et de dire adieu à l'amour. Cependant dès l'instant où il sauve Tsurara (qui allait se faire écraser par un train), les choses deviennent totalement différentes.
