'Burnout' starts with 13-year-old Ayoub's long-sighted look at a shop window. He works as a shoe-shopper, hoping to earn enough money to buy a bone prosthesis for his mother. Director and Scriptwriter Nour Eddine Lakhmari gives perspectives for several different people in the city of Casablanca: a medical student who eventually confronts his privileged customer; Jaguar-driving, confined Jad and his unhappy wife Ines; a whimsical car enthusiast. Life is linked to different urban environments, and 'Burnout' shows how social and economic conditions affect the characters' life situations.
