Johnny Leclerc, issu d'une mère normande et d'un père alsacien, vit dans une cité de banlieue en compagnie de ses amis, beurs pour la plupart. Il se comporte comme un musulman, fait le ramadan et porte une djelaba. Il est même persuadé de s'appeler Abdelbachir et d'être né dans un petit village du bled. Quand son ami Yacine a quelques ennuis avec un caïd local et décide de retourner pour les vacances en Algérie, il s'embarque clandestinement dans les bagages de la famille Sabri pour exaucer son rêve et connaître enfin ses « racines ». À peine arrivé sur la côte algérienne, Johnny se sent comme chez lui.

Adapté du livre autobiographique d’Azouz Begag, ce film raconte l’enfance d'Omar (nom donné à Azouz dans le film) dans un bidonville de la banlieue lyonnaise de 1963. Le mot « gone » est un mot du patois lyonnais désignant les enfants. Le Chaâba (ou bidonville) est un ensemble d’habitations précaire sans hygiène et misérable, mais où il règne tout de même l’entraide, la fraternité et la solidarité. Le film développe la vie quotidienne des immigrés, le racisme et la xénophobie, le rôle de l’école dans l’intégration... Mais il souligne aussi les différences entre les modes de vies, les disparités des richesses.

Le maire d'un quartier vétuste et cosmopolite de la périphérie de Paris, où combines et système D règnent en maître, aspire à un peu de calme pour préparer sa ré-élection. Il passe un marché avec Slimane et Majid, deux petits voyous reconvertis pour l'occasion en pseudo imams. Ces derniers lui promettent, moyennant subventions, de faire régner l'ordre jusqu'aux élections en recrutant les jeunes désœuvrés. Seulement ils avaient oublié le concert de Raporiental, le groupe de Raï de Rachid et Cheb Krimo.
