When a group of Moroccan street children are invited to take part in a treehouse building workshop, they find themselves unexpectedly transformed. Facing difficult choices in their lives – whether to emigrate to nearby Europe or cope with limited prospects for the future in Tangier – the treehouse they construct, under the guidance of an American architect, takes on symbolic significance. An inspiring tale of childhoods lost and regained, tangier treehouse offers a timely and intimate window into the world of Arab youth.
