One Way Ticket, a short film directed by Zakaria Bakkali, follows an Amazigh newcomer arriving in Brussels. His first encounter with the city reveals two contrasting worlds separated by a single street.

Produced by Issouraf in Brussels, the film brought together cinematographer Diedrick Degryse, sound engineer Julien Chassaignon, and editor Jérôme Guiot. The cast included Said Saidi, Maria Castillejo, Ines Mayol-Hernandes, and Khalid.

The original announcement records filming in Brussels on 24 November and plans to present the work at short-film festivals in France and Belgium. Its premise places the experience of arrival at the center of the story: how a newcomer reads a city, and how close physical spaces can contain very different social realities.
