S01E02 — The Boxing Match

Khadidja wakes up after her first night in Lyes’s shack. The two children decide to go to Malek's place to collect Khadidja's belongings and some food before the modest apartment is rented out to a new family. They are caught by two men who come to search the room, clearly looking for something. After they leave, the young girl realizes that she will have to stay in the shack for an indefinite period. Lyes then asks a big favor from Philippe to improve his guest's daily life: to give her his mattress. In exchange, he promises to introduce him to his idol, the boxer Alphonse Halimi, who is fighting in a match in Algiers that same evening.
