Synopsis

In a working-class city of Mauritius, the old Bolom, worn out and alcoholic, has disappeared following an argument with his son Ronaldo, who sets out looking for him to make him sign a document at the heart of their discord. On his way, he crosses paths with Ajeya, an Indian immigrant worker trying to escape the country and return home. He dreams of a golden boy's life, she flees her modern slave status and fears being caught by her boss. They have nothing in common and their first contact is electric. As an atypical road movie, their nocturnal crossing of the island is far from the tourist postcard and takes on a new dimension, between a mystical quest and a desire for freedom that will eventually bring them together.
