- 1960 marked the end of the colonial empires across the African continent. France disappeared from the map, leaving behind the CFA Franc, a colonial creation, which is the name of the currency that still circulates in almost all of its former territories south of the Sahara. How does it come, those countries, once they regained their freedom, never denounced this strange legacy? The film delves into a little-known story that started in the 19th century and continues to the present time.
- In October 2014, the 'Balai Citoyen' ('Citizens' Broom') revolt led to the overthrow of Burkina Faso's dictator, Blaise Compaoré. Rapper Serge Bambara (aka Smockey), was among the insurgents. He is now considered to be one of the orchestrators of this political change. The film immerses the audience in his daily life as leader and artist, inspired by Thomas Sankara.
