The film stars Rabah Nait Oufella as Karim D., freely inspired by the story of Mehdi Meklat.
[5][6] The cast also includes Antoine Reinartz, Sofian Khammes, Anaël Snoek and Aleksandra Yermak.
A rare Arab rising star in Paris' intellectual hothouse, his social life shunts between glittering literary cocktails and hanging with his old friends from the banlieues.

[3][2] Arthur Rambo grossed $0 in the United States and Canada,[2] and a worldwide total of $162,902,[3] against a production budget of about $4.2 million.
