Ghanem Zrelli
At one of Tunisia’s largest steel factories, Mohamed becomes the victim of an explosion that leaves a slowly rusting piece of metal embedded in his head.
After being sidelined from his job and reassigned as a guard, he begins a journey of vengeance that uncovers a larger conspiracy, all while his physical condition deteriorates.
