Why we chose it

The end of colonialism like you’ve never seen it before, or like the unique Claire Denis dreamed of it, in a film where the inner power of the constantly amazing Isabelle Huppert is spread in the vast areas of the Dark Continent’s mystical landscape.

Synopsis

A white woman, descendant of a colonial family, stubbornly refuses to leave the farm and coffee plantation she feels are rightfully hers, in an African country tormented by conflicts and the civil strife.
