On a rugged island off the coast of Madagascar, the paths of two souls searching for meaning cross. Macha, originally from Belgium, seeks refuge with her mother, while Franco, born on the island, returns to his roots. As their personal stories intertwine, the island—imbued with mysticism—reveals the maternal and ambiguous power of water, which can be both nurturing and overwhelming. It blends drama elements. The film reflects a distinct Belgium style and perspective. The story is brought to life by directors Valéry Rosier and Farellia Tahina Venance. With a runtime of 1h 21m, it offers a concise viewing experience.
The main cast includes Mara Taquin, Francodris Mananjara and Tahinjanahary Albertine Voavisoa. Behind the camera, the film is directed by Valéry Rosier and Farellia Tahina Venance, written by Valéry Rosier and Farellia Tahina Venance, produced by Benoît Roland.
