Synopsis

After extensive studies in psychology and several solid professional experiences, SOYE, a beautiful woman in her forties and a professional psychologist, decides to open her own clinic in the nearby popular neighborhood where she lives with her husband ÉPOÏ.

However, the residents are not convinced by what they quickly and bluntly refer to as "white people's stuff." They do not embrace it and keep SOYE and her expertise in a prolonged state of unemployment.
Until the day when mystical problems violently knock on her door.
