Ady is thirteen. He lives in France with his father. His father is raising him alone. Ady no longer listens to him. The father is also running out of means. He comes to a decision. He will send Ady to his uncle for the summer. Uncle Amadou lives in Burkina Faso. That is on the other side of the Mediterranean. Ady thinks he is going on holiday. Things do not work that way there. In the village thirteen is taken as the start of becoming a man. Ady understands it altogether differently. The film shows the distance between two worlds through one boy. It is Berni Goldblat’s first feature. Makan Nathan Diarra, Ibrahim Koma and Hamadoun Kassogué appear in the eighty four minute film, a Qatari, French and Burkinabé production finished in 2017.
