A biligual love affair - contains chapter-by-chapter transcripts and vocabulary. A love affair between London-born and bred Claire, and a Paris based French Algerian man called Ahmed. When Claire and Ahmed meet it is language that stands between them… (something Claire intends to conquer with audio lessons and practice). But when Ahmed gets stopped and searched in London under section 44, the seed of a much larger difference is sown. The production combines the best of BBC storytelling with ARTE radio.com’s unique approach to sound creating a new experience for the Afternoon Play.
