| Synopsis |
| Political satire, African tradition, a thriller and superstition are combined in this crime-story, the Malian director’s last work. Inspired by a real event, the film tells the story of Yacine, an albino and satirical cartoonist of a newspaper in Bamako, who is killed and decapitated. His friend Fafa, a theatre star, and Inspector Fily investigate his death. The head has to be found at all costs, otherwise a great disaster will befall the whole country. |
