The story is set in a large public works site in West Africa. Horn, the boss, and Cal, a young engineer, share temporary housing behind the double gates of the enclave reserved for whites. Leone, Horn’s future wife, arrives from Europe on the same evening that a man who has broken in appears behind the gates. His name is Alboury. He refuses to leave until the body of his brother, who died on the site, is returned to him.<\/p>\n

The film is set to release in French cinemas on April 8, 2026, and has already made rounds in several international festivals including Toronto, New York Film Festival, and San Sebastian.<\/p>\n
