L'absence
The recurrent cycle Noir.e.s à la caméra allows us to discover works directed or produced by African or Afrodescendant filmmakers throughout the history of cinema.
After brilliant studies in France and an absence of fifteen years, Adama, a young polytechnician, returns suddenly to his native Senegal, alarmed by a telegram informing him of the sudden deterioration of his grandmother's health. In fact, she is doing just fine and everyone around Adama believes that the prodigal son has returned. This brings to the surface a long-buried family drama.
