New York, September 11, 2001: a young French photographer [[Deafness | deaf-mute]] is a guest of her fiancé, a tourist guide for the disabled who is about to bring a group to visit the Twin Towers. After she tried to explain to him that a story "at a distance" like theirs has no chance of succeeding, he tries to leave a message to the computer before leaving explaining that only a miracle can keep them together. At that moment he returns home covered in dust, miraculously escaping the attack. | New York, September 11, 2001: a young French photographer [[Deafness|deaf-mute]] is a guest of her fiancé, a tourist guide for the disabled who is about to bring a group to visit the Twin Towers.

Black screen. Background noises and rumors of everyday life, suddenly interrupted by the screams of the witnesses of the crash of [[American Airlines flight 11 | flight AA11]] against the [[One World Trade Center|North Tower]] of the World Trade Center. While the black screen is occasionally interrupted by the repertoire images of the attacks, the voices of the announcements on television, the screams of the victims, the explosions of the planes, the calls made by the victims and their relatives overlap. The sound stops and you can see the two towers collapse without sound. The background voices start again on a background of violins, while the screen gradually changes from black to white. Two writings appear (one in [[Arabic alphabet | Arabic characters]] and one in [[Latin alphabet | Latin characters]]) of the same meaning: "Does God's light guide us or blind us?" The sentences finally disappear in a blinding light. | Black screen.

A Pakistani woman has not heard from her son [[Mohammad Salman Hamdani | Salman]] since the day of the attacks on the [[World Trade Center (1973–2001) | Twin Towers]]. [[Central Intelligence Agency | CIA]] and [[Federal Bureau of Investigation | FBI]] repeatedly question her, since they believe the young man, of Muslim faith, could be linked to the attacks. In particular, they ask many questions about why he did not show up for work that day and why, despite having decided to pursue a medical career and leave the police academy, he still held the latter's card. | A Pakistani woman has not heard from her son [[Mohammad Salman Hamdani|Salman]] since the day of the attacks on the [[World Trade Center (1973–2001)|Twin Towers]].

While the woman does not resign herself to the disappearance of her son, the media begin to report the news of her involvement in the attack, which does nothing but exacerbate the isolation in which the woman and the family have fallen. Only after six months, the boy's remains are identified among those found among the rubble and the truth is re-established: it turns out that the young man died while he was helping at the site of the attacks. During the funeral, the mother denounces the climate of suspicion that has been created against her family and against the Muslim community in the United States. | While the woman does not resign herself to the disappearance of her son, the media begin to report the news of her involvement in the attack, which does nothing but exacerbate the isolation in which the woman and the family have fallen.

Japan, August 1945. Yoichi, a soldier returned from the front suffering from [[post-traumatic stress disorder | post-traumatic disorder]], behaves like a [[Serpentes | snake]], to the dismay of his parents and his wife. His family tries to convince him to return to the "human" state, but without success. The other villagers begin to look at them with suspicion and fear, but this does not prevent Yoichi's wife from having an extra-marital relationship. | Japan, August 1945.

While the wife and her lover talk about the traumatic experiences that the soldier must have suffered, of the [[Little Boy | new type of bomb]] used in the [[Atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki | bombing of Hiroshima]] and the forthcoming end of the war, the situation worsens: Yoichi swallows a [[Mus musculus | mouse]] under the horrified eyes of his mother, who decides to chase him away. In the following days, the villagers suffer the loss of various animals and everyone blames the mad soldier. It is thus decided to organize a search operation to find it, but without success. Meanwhile, a [[Analyzes | flashback]] clarifies the reason for the soldier's behavior: hiding behind a boulder after a violent battle, Yoichi is beaten by a fellow soldier who asks him why he does not take part in this "holy war". | While the wife and her lover talk about the traumatic experiences that the soldier must have suffered, of the [[Little Boy|new type of bomb]] used in the [[Atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki|bombing of Hiroshima]] and the forthcoming end of the war, the situation worsens: Yoichi swallows a [[Mus musculus|mouse]] under the horrified eyes of his mother, who decides to chase him away.

During the hunt, Yoichi's wife accidentally finds her husband drinking water from a river and asks him "do you dislike being a man so much?" Yoichi, in response, crawls away ignoring his wife. Finally, a snake is shown above a river stone, while the inscription in [[Japanese language | Japanese]] "Holy wars do not exist" appears. | During the hunt, Yoichi's wife accidentally finds her husband drinking water from a river and asks him "do you dislike being a man so much?"
