Synopsis
A few days after the assassination of left-wing Tunisian militant Chokri Belaïd in early 2013, the Tunisian media started to talk about a prime suspect: a certain Kamel Gadhgadhi. Two weeks later, director Rafik Omrani stumbles upon a picture of the alleged killer. To Omrani’s great surprise, Gadhgadhi is a friend from his university days. A kind of patchwork emerges, one that defines a more finely textured image of Gadhgadhi... Tuesday, 4 February, 2014: The Tunisian Minister of the Interior announces that Gadhgadhi was killed during security operations.
