Amel, wrongly accused, is released from prison after a case of adultery and prostitution. In the underworld of Tunis, she searches for her missing son Moumen. In the course of her journey, Amel comes face to face with a Tunisian society in free fall.

Amel works in a factory in Tunis. She lives with her alcoholic husband, Tahar, a former local football star, and their only son, Moumen, a talented football goalie. To convince the factory boss to provide a piston for her son, Amel betrays her colleagues who are on strike. Amel meets the piston: Adel, a businessman who takes advantage of the situation and abuses Amel. But the police arrest them, the scandal goes viral and Amel is accused of adultery.

NOTE BY THE AUTHOR
Streams interweaves three themes that have always haunted me: family, violence and love. Through them, I try to describe and translate the complex existence of a mother and her son.
