- Synopsis:
- Handsome Hicham Alaoui (Mehdi Meskar), 22, wakes up one day and decides it's time to find a new life. Deserting his family who don't know anything about his innermost desires, he travels to Lyon, to meet up with the only other gay man he knows: Thibaut Giaccherini (Eric Pucheu), a 28 year old, a LGBT activist. Hicham's quest for political and sexual identity finds refuge in Thibaut. He admires his commitment, his self-belief and his feistiness. But the more Hicham learns about him, the more his flaws and contradictions are exposed. Soon it becomes clear if Hicham is to truly find himself, he will have to trace his own path.

A French view of Gay Liberation - Woke: Series 1 review by KW
Interesting set of short episodes highlighting the struggle with being gay, set in Lyon, with a set of recognised characters enhanced by a brother and sister of the Muslim faith coming to terms with their sexuality amongst the ongoing struggle for Gay Liberation!
