is set in 1994, making it chronologically the last film in this nine-part series. In a grey suburb of a big city, a difference of opinion between a group of teenagers, in which Zakari kills François, leads to disaster. Zakari panics and goes into hiding. In the course of the following night, tension rises. Both those who want to protect Zakari and those pursuing him to avenge their dead brother are brought together in the swirling torture. The precise cause soon gets lost, the colour of their skin has no meaning and only the excitement of the frightening game is important; a game in which cars are for joy-riding, with young people racing recklessly through red lights, and across busy junctions; a game in which the difference between the biggest kick and sudden death is but a fraction of a second.
