Synopsis
At 12, Eya's world is shaken by the sudden death of her older brother, Younès. As she navigates the silence and rituals of grief, she finds a lifeline in rap, dance, and the presence of Younès' close friends. Their creative energy helps her keep his spirit alive while slowly uncovering her own identity. Through movement, music, and the emotional turbulence of adolescence, Eya begins to make sense of her loss and reshape the world around her.
