Driss and Manuel both grew up on the same council estate. An estate where the sense of belonging to your patch is much stronger than the sense of belonging to a country, a nation or a culture... Manuel has assimilated this belonging, and he has even benefited from it and built his life on it. Driss, meanwhile, has shunned it. They will both have to face up to the consequences of their decisions – because they will each have a price to pay…
Close Enemies is a 2018 French drama thriller following two men from the same housing estate whose divergent life choices put them on a collision course. The film explores themes of loyalty, ambition, and the cost of breaking ties with one's roots.
