See the films the platforms disagree about most →In a suburb of Dakar, a young woman named Ada is in love with Souleiman, a construction worker. When Souleiman and his coworkers are not paid for months, they set off across the sea in a boat to seek a better future in Spain, leaving Ada behind. Soon after, a fire destroys the room of Ada's wealthy fiancé, and a policeman begins investigating. The film becomes a ghostly love story and social commentary, as the spirits of the lost men seemingly return to seek justice and reunite with their loved ones.
