In Bab El Oued ,lives the Hernandez family:the parents want their daughter to get married . They seem naive and rather simple-minded :the "culture" Carmen gets is found in her kid brother's chocolate ,or on a poster in a movie theater;she does not know what a tiebreaker is:hence her failure in a sentimental woman magazine 's competition.The "real" culture is represented by the "true" French schoolteacher whose dictation revolves around Charlemagne and by the (rather unsympathetic ) social worker ,who proudly walks down the street ,with her fashionable hairdo and dress and who wants the Hernandez's little daughter to spend her Summer in a French Holiday camp to breathe pure fresh air .It must also be noticed that everyone knows his place : a man of French extraction must not marry a Pied-Noir girl.
