Ali Zaoua: Prince of the Streets

Overview
Ali, Kwita, Omar and Boubker are street kids. The daily dose of glue sniffing represents their only escape from reality.

Ali wants to become a sailor - when he was living with his mother, a prostitute, he used to listen to a fairy tale about the sailor who discovered the miracle island with two suns.
