- Synopsis
- Amin, an aspiring screenwriter living in
  Paris, returns home for the summer, to
  a fishing village in the South of France.
  It is a time of reconnecting with his
  family and his childhood friends.
  Together with his cousin Tony and his
  best friend Ophélie, he spends his
  time between the Tunisian restaurant
  run by his parents, the local bars
  and the beaches frequented by girls
  on holiday. Enchanted by the many
  female characters who surround him,
  Amin remains in awe of these summer
  sirens while his dionysiac cousin throws
  himself into their carnal delights with
  euphoria. Armed with his camera and
  guided by the bright simmer light of the
  Mediterranean coast, Amin pursues
  his philosophical quest while gathering
  inspiration for his screenplays. When it
  comes to love, only Mektoub (‘destiny
  in Arabic’) can decide. This coming-ofage
  saga set in 1994 casts a nostalgic
  glow on the wonders of youth.
