Parigi, 7 gennaio 2015: i fratelli Said e Chérif Kouachi assaltano la redazione di Charlie Hebdo e compiono una strage. Vent'anni di differenza tra i due fatti di sangue. Stessa la matrice, quella del jihadismo, il terrorismo islamico. Simili le storie: giovani perduti, finiti nel gorgo della delinquenza e alla fine corrotti dai "cattivi maestri" del terrore.
