Storyline

In the early 1920s, Georges Laffont, traumatized by the horrific trench warfare, decides to leave his life behind and travel to West Africa. In the vast territories of Upper Volta he - with the help of Diofo, artist and also survivor of the Great War - try to recruit the villagers as labor for plantations in Ghana. But his adventure leads him to a dead-end, and he comes back to Paris desperate to find his place in the world.

RTEl antepenúltimo mohicanoAug 21, 2018

It's natural that the conflict is more internal than external once the war framework has been overcome, but there is a lack of reflections, not only verbal but also symbolic, that deepen within it. [Full review in Spanish]

RTEl Mundo (Spain)Aug 10, 2018

The story is sustained in its actors, but burns out in a scattered framework. [Full review in Spanish]

RTEl Pais (Spain)Aug 10, 2018

Courcon's film has beautiful compositions, but void of any material that evokes feeling. [Full Review in Spanish]
