  Synopsis:

  A virtual unknown outside of his native France before last year, Tahar Rahim has the world at his feet at the age of 28 after a critically-acclaimed breakthrough performance in A Prophet. The movie won the Grand prix at last year's Cannes festival, and was named best film at the London film festival in October, leading to the suggestion it will find itself among the best foreign film nominees for this year's Academy awards.
