The short's main characters are Simone - a young and ambition-less unemployed man, and the titular Djinn - an ancient and powerful genie that is reduced to grant wishes in a small suburban office. The first of the two wishes for a job, whereas the second only wishes to steal as many wishes as possible to his "customer", to obtain as many years of life for himself. Both characters are running from a crisis: Simone from the economic depression, and the Djinn from a crisis of the imagination that is perhaps a direct consequence of the first.

We measure the lives of others by comparing them with our own, and the idea we get is often wrong and far from reality. An established self-made man meets his antithesis during his perfect evening. Comedy as a pretext for dealing with a modern guerrilla between classes.
