    Storyline

    Edit
    Since football left the stadiums - clay or grass - to get into people's minds, it has become a problem. He is a phenomenon of society. This phenomenon is even more terrible when it comes to a final of the Tunisian Cup. For Mustapha, Hassan and Hedi, the event starts on Saturday evening. The dinner that evening, Mustapha to his friends is already a prelude to the match the next day. For everyone, women and children included, the countdown has already begun - No matter if, taking advantage of the passion that drives the debate around the table, the wife of Mustapha surrender to the caresses of the cousin. What matters is that tomorrow the beloved team will win. Sunday, the city is in celebration. The stadium is overheated. Our three friends have found their fourth companion Rached, a bank employee, who goes to the stadium as we go to the theater: full beige and Bordeaux tie and the fear of a mother who terrorizes him. On the stands, the public is in a trance. On the field, the result does not go according to the desires of our four supporters. It's a catastrophe. Blows and wounds. Violence and bitterness. And this is the emergency room after an unfortunate penalty. The disappointment is huge. How to soothe his pain? each of the four fans must return home. What will Rached say to his mother with whom he must go to the wedding of his cousin? Hedi will he have the courage to face his son, to support him of the enemy club? And Hassen whose car was literally demolished, in what condition will he find his single studio from France? For Mustapha, the question does not arise. His cause is heard. Cuckold, he's lucky. He won at the promo-sport. What does the rest matter to him? —brahamdali
