Ezz the Egyptian has shaved hair and a permanent smile. He runs a small restaurant, a former customs office, abandoned on the edge of Europe.

For in front of his restaurant is a white line on the ground cutting the road in two - the French/Swiss border. Ezz likes to talk about his country that he is nostalgic about. And when he sees snow, it makes him think of the desert. So he recites a poem in Arabic to himself.
