Paris, present day, on a small square in the Belleville neighborhood of Paris.
Stéphane Zi is Chinese, Oussama Chouffry is Algerian. They’re ten years old and best friends. Their respective families run two competing restaurants and share a terrace on the square: Empire of the Dragon is operated by Wong, Stéphane’s father, while Oussama’s family manages Berber King, a Halal burger joint.
But after Samir Chouffry accuses Wong Zi of eating his dog, the two families launch a merciless war, each of them willing to do anything to get the whole terrace…!
