About

During her daughter's wedding in France, a mother shares their Guinea-Bissau heritage.

The film follows Gloria, played by Katy Correa, and her daughter Nour (D’Johé Kouadio). Gloria takes part in two ceremonies: a commemorative ritual for her late father in Guinea-Bissau and her daughter's wedding in a Paris suburb. Through these events, the film explores memory, ritual and culture between African immigrants in France and their native country.
