This is a beautifully told tale of a young man who discovers the truth about his origins. Youssef is coming of age at a time when Morocco is torn between powerful social forces, and he is nearly powerless. The story is tragic in that its outcome seems inevitable. What can one poor man do in the face of corruption?
