Aïcha, Johan and the married Lo Manto couple have taken a step in their lives that is unsettling to many people around them. They have made the Muslim creed: “I testify that there is no God but Allah and that Mohammad is His prophet”. This is where their transformation and reorientation begins. Aïcha moves from the rural province to the big city and follows the strict rules of her new religion euphorically. The Lo Mantos try to stand their ground against the prejudice of their surroundings. And Johan? He sports a beard and flirts with his role as a devout Muslim. Or is filmmaker David Vogel just imagining it? What role does his own Jewish past play? The longer he accompanies his protagonists, the more he feels that he cannot ignore his own biography. His religious past catches up with him - a past he thought to have left far behind.
