À la suite d’attentats terroristes dans la région du Sahel, Naïma perd ses parents et finit échouée dans un camp de déplacés. Les années passent et malgré les séquelles qu’elle a subi lors de l’attentat, dont la perte de l’ouïe , elle n’abandonne pas l’espoir de retrouver son frère Saïd. Ses efforts finissent par payer lorsqu’elle le trouve enfin, hélas il semble être passé du mauvais côté.
Réalisé par Boubakar Diallo / 2023 / 90 minutes / Long-métrage – Drame / Burkina Faso /VOF

In the war-torn Sahel region, Naïma arrives at a displaced persons camp, unaware that her quest to find her long-lost brother Saïd will finally be fulfilled. Their separation occurred after their parents died in a terrorist attack, leaving Naïma with hearing loss and a lifelong obsession to reunite with her brother. However, their joyous reunion is short-lived when Naïma learns that Saïd has joined the wrong side, forcing her to choose between protecting their only surviving parent or delivering him to justice to dismantle the terrorist group he is part of.
