Ahmed’s Song

France2018fiction30'Konkurs krótkometrażowy (2019)

This tale about the encounter between rigour and rebellion, with a credible plot and natural acting, is very well anchored in the social reality. Some bathhouses in Paris confirm that each day they are visited by about 600 people of a very different status, including the homeless, the unemployed, the poor, students, pensioners and single mothers. Ahmed, who is a bathhouse employee, was ordered to supervise a rebellious teenager. An older man and Mike differ in terms of their temperament and respect for rules, but share loneliness and the experience of exclusion. The bond that is being born between them will offer a new opportunity to each of them.
