Behind the counter of his shop, Simon, a grocer of "Jewish" denomination, has always been the confidant, the healer and the memory of the inhabitants of Zarzis,a small town in the south-east of Tunisia. His shop is a meeting-place for a collection of portraits; Tahar the progressive teacher; Hadi the accursed painter; Fatma the matchmaker; Béchir the taxi-driver... The shop turns in succession into a political and philosophical arena where everyone expresses their own vision of the world.
