Algiers, June 1955. Khadidja has left Kabylie to join her older brother Malek in Algiers. On this first day in the city, and while waiting to be enrolled in school, she accompanies him to the market, where he has a small fruit and vegetable stall. But the day doesn’t go as planned: following an altercation with the police, Malek is arrested. Khadidja finds herself alone.
The children devise a plan to retrieve the notebook from Guy: Lyes has to get it without being noticed. Time is running out, and Khadidja’s meeting with Nejib is approaching fast. But the plan goes awry when Guy’s father arrives unexpectedly and recognizes Lyes. The young messenger returns empty-handed, much to Khadidja’s despair. Philippe then decides to take matters into his own hands and proposes to win back the notebook fair and square in a boxing match with Guy.
