The story of the most controversial French rap group. For the first time, the artists from the Orly-Choisy-Vitry axis open up in an exceptional documentary lasting over 2 hours, featuring unreleased live footage, music videos, and documents dating back to 1991.

"EJM QUI EST-IL ?" is a documentary directed by Mehdi BARA and released in 2011. It features numerous testimonies from fellow rappers such as Akhenaton, Oxmo Puccino, Disiz La Peste, Kery James, Rohff, among others. In an interview, Mehdi BARA explains his motivations for creating this documentary. Through this film, he expresses his desire to introduce himself, showcase 10 to 20 years of his career, highlight his evolution, and narrate the history and foundation of French rap to give it value.

Since his arrival in France as a child, the traumas of exile, abandonment, and poverty have shaped the identity of Alix Mathurin. As a teenager, rap and the streets led him away from school. Endowed with a strong presence and a sensitive pen, Kery James quickly becomes the voice of a generation of young people from the suburbs who are aware that life and they themselves are deteriorating together. At the same time, he plays with fire within a gang of drug dealers and robbers. The murder of one of his friends prompts him to stop everything, both rap and the path of delinquency. Converted to Islam, he resumes rap as a missionary because he knows that his voice is influential.
