The movie highlights the case of Omar Raddad, a Moroccan gardener who was accused of killing Ghislaine Marchal in France.

  The case dates back to June 24, 1991 when Marchal, Raddad's employer was found dead in the basement of her villa in Mougins, with the sentence "Omar killed me" written with the blood of the victim at the scene of the crime.

    A few days later, Raddad was committed to a prison in Grasse. He left it seven years later pardoned, but still guilty in the eyes of justice.

    In 1994, writer Pierre-Emmanuel Vaugrenard, who believes in the innocence of Omar Raddad moved to Manchester to conduct his own investigation and write a book about the case, which inspired the filmmaker.

    The movie will be released on June 22 in France and on July 1 in Morocco.

    Speaking on this occasion, Roschdy Zem paid tribute to all those who contributed to achieving this movie, "a dream that comes true today,” and which revealed the truth and proved Omar Raddad innocent.

   "The story of the movie is tragic and full of inconsistencies and improbabilities. It's a real story that cannot be invented by any screenwriter," he told reporters shortly before the screening of the film.
