Description: Reda, who lives with his family in southern France, is about
to take his college entrance exams. One day he is told to drive his father
to Mecca to perform the Hajj. The journey is difficult because of the
distance, and due to the emotional and generational distance between him
and his father. Ultimately, the journey to Mecca is as impacting as the
arrival to the holy city.
