📝 Plot: A young African man arrives in Paris seeking opportunity but faces racism, alienation, and disillusionment. Through fragmented, satirical scenes blending fiction and documentary, his journey exposes colonial legacies and systemic injustice. As hope fades, his struggle becomes a powerful critique of identity, belonging, and the harsh realities of postcolonial society.
