A dangerous fog hangs over a fishing village. Only one young man succeeds in lifting it. As a result, he wins the love of the beautiful Maxoy – and incurs the fatal jealousy of his best friend. A tragic story unfolds in which the question of the price of forgiveness finds an unexpected answer. Intense colour accents and the music of the stars Youssou N’Dour and Wasis Diop lend the film its unique atmosphere.
