ريح الغرب

The story follows Hadj Ahmed, a traditional Algerian father struggling with his son Jalali's drug addiction and the negative influences of his peers, particularly "El Wel" (the wolf), a drug dealer. Hadj Ahmed seeks guidance from Sheikh Souguri, a religious sage, while also dealing with health issues such as dizziness and family tensions, including his wife's frustration and community gossip. Songs by the late Cheb Azzedine, such as "Ya Walidi Barkak men el Mokhderat" (My son, stay away from drugs), underscore the themes of redemption and caution against vice.

The Infidel

Based in a London suburb Mahmud Nasir lives with his wife, Saamiya, and two children, Rashid and Nabi. His son plans to marry Uzma, the step-daughter of Egyptian-born Arshad Al-Masri, a so-called 'Hate Cleric' from Waziristan, Pakistan. Mahmud, who is not exactly a devout Muslim, he drinks alcohol, and does not pray five times, but does agree that he will appease Arshad, without whose approval the marriage cannot take place. Shortly thereafter Mahmud, while going over his recently deceased mother's documents, will find out that he was adopted, his birth parents were Jewish, and his name is actually Solly Shimshillewitz.
