- Kamal Hachkar explores the 2000-year-old Mellah in his family's village of Tinghir, Morocco, and follows the trail of the town's once substantial Jewish population to its emigres and descendants in Israel.

- As the world northernmost city, Norilsk is an impossible kind of place. In this Arctic city, winter lasts for nine months and temperatures plummet to -50°C. Norilsk Nickel, the first worldwide producer of copper and nickel, has dominated life since the city rose from the ashes of the Soviet gulag.

- Thirty years after May 1968, a man offers a look back at these events, the ideas of the time and the noble combat which, today, still appears to him like a necessity. Today, his look at the past has not changed and his opinions do not seem to have evolved even though he recognizes he has made a concession as he is working for the government as a civil servant. In parallel to this man's thoughts, another person, as a voice-over, expresses her bitterness and her disillusion: is society condemned to evolve complacently in this system? Is this evil, the evil of resignation? The film seems to give us the answer as it shows us the possibility of an alternative to resignation: being faithful to one's dreams.
- Gilles is a man who has been living on the streets for 20 years. He has always been homeless and he has learned to survive and cope like so many others, but his personal story leads us to his passion: trains. His grandfather was a railwayman and, since his childhood, he has had a rather particular relationship with the railway world. Evoking the memory of his grandfather and his past takes us on a return to the places of his childhood: a journey into his memory; but today, things have changed.
- All of them have street jobs: they wash cars, sell fruit or medicine, sand from a canoe, make cooking pots, crack stones, or hunt snakes, etc. On the African continent, informal economy has become the first source of income for the city-dwellers (two thirds of them survive like this). In the streets, all kinds of trade can take place; sidewalks and carriageway pavements constitute the perfect premises for the flowering of all kind of human resources.
