La Voie lente
Samia Meskaldji

In Marseille, Leïla runs a grocery store and raises her only son, Nabil, by herself. Their life unfolds peacefully, at the pace of the games they invent for each other. But Leïla no longer wants this life. She stops paying her suppliers and starts down a dangerous path, taking Nabil down it with her.
