Synopsis "A man With no Title"

Mohand-Said Ait-Taleb is an enigma. Living in France butravaged by memories of the war in Algeria, he has withdrawn into his own world, away from his wife and children. When his son Xavier discovers articles byAlbert Camus describing the appalling conditions his father grew up in, hestarts to piece together the story of his life. Xavier retraces the steps of this dignified, illiterate andstrong-willed man: from Kabylia - where starving children, like Mohand-Said, fought with dogs for scraps - to the metal factory in Normandy, where hisfather would spend the rest of his days, consumed with providing for hisfamily. It is there that Xavier discovers his love of books. When he breakswith conservative family traditions and confesses his attraction to men, Xavierwill find which doors slam closed and which will open. A Man With No Title is a beautiful and moving tributeto a father, to the immigrants condemned to undertake the hardest work formeagre reward, and to the power of literature to transcend class.
