Khamsa
A boy named Karim runs away from his foster home, carrying only a stolen toy and a name he barely remembers. His desperate search for a family he never knew leads him into the harsh, sun-bleached streets of Marseille, where every adult is a potential threat or a broken promise. This 2008 French drama paints a raw, unflinching portrait of childhood abandonment and the fragile hope that persists on society's margins.
