Having been sent to Europe as a baby after a birthmark convinced his mother that he must be a sorcerer, Koffi and his white Belgian fiancée Alice embark on a fraught family trip to the Democratic Republic of Congo. However, complexities abound as four individuals find their different worlds and perspectives clashing which intersect through chapters in the film, each adding a new dimension as the narrative unfolds.
A visceral and kinetic tale of reconciliation, superstition, and the violence of extractivism told in a beautiful and at times hallucinatory vision.
