Eden

Directed by Lisaly Martinez

Driven by curiosity about his roots, Zayd, a young adopted North African teenager, seeks acceptance from a group of peers who share his background. After marking his skin with the crew’s symbol, Zayd finds that none of the boys can truly satisfy his longing to understand Morocco: none of them have ever been there. For these second-generation immigrants, the motherland remains an idealized, distant place, more imagined than known.
