Synopsis

Fred, a photographer, is in Tunisia to report on the « Bezness » (male prostitutes). Thanks to Roufa, Fred will discover this surprising environment where young men are confronted with the contradictions between tradition and modernity.

Roufa, who's handsome and tanned, wants to leave lives from his body. His dream was to leave Sousse. Europe has always fascinated and attracted. He has both double moral and behaviour standards. He tends to be very permissive with his customers, and repressive and conservative with the people around him, especially with his young fiancee, Khomsa. This movie is a portrait of the struggle of the youth, confronted with the contradictions between the west and the east, traditions and modernity.[1]
