Sinekatalog’s take

Idrissa Ouédraogo's drama follows a West African boy sent to France to live with his family, struggling with exile and imagination. Richard Bohringer and Alex Descas lend warmth to a tender, magical-realist film about displacement.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
