Eighteen year old illiterate Malik El Djebena, sentenced to six years in prison, falls in with a group of Corsicans who enlist him in their gang. Having proven himself tough and reliable, Malik wins the confidence of César Luciani, the gang's boss, and Malik uses this closeness to power to discretely develop his own drug trafficking ring.
