Contents/Summary

Summary

Portraits of young people in Norway and France who live between two cultures. The Western culture of their homeland and their parents' Islamic cultural heritage both affect their lives. As a result, they feel homeless. In their homeland these young people are considered foreigners, but when visiting their roots they long for home. They feel eternally alien. The movie talks about life on the border-line between two cultures. What is it like to be an alien in one's own country? How does it feel to experience racism at the hands of one's fellow countrymen? And most important of all, how can one cope in spite of all the hatred that must be faced?
