Tête de turc takes place in a rough, run-down suburban neighborhood where the law of silence rules. Simon (Pascal Elbé), a doctor, is on his way to tend to an emergency call. Mistaking him for the police, a few local youngsters throw a Molotov cocktail at his car, setting it on fire. They all escape except Bora (newcomer Samir Makhlouf), who gets him out and saves his life. While Simon is in the coma, his brother, police officer Atom (Roschdy Zem) investigates as the incident becomes more and more publicized in the media. When the French government offers a Good Samaritan medal, Bora is faced with a moral dilemma: betray his friends to get a better life? –COLCOA
