When Aude, an aspiring journalist, decides to knock on the captain's door to investigate the Morne Dédé - a deserted Port-au-Prince neighborhood that had its heyday at the time of the dictatorship, when it was home to opponents - it is nothing else in the eyes of the old man that a young bourgeois who has experienced only "suffering fairy tales", the heir to a long tradition of opulent families who built their fortune on the backs of poor people. But to this cantankerous old man frozen in his chair, the girl also offers the opportunity to tear the silence, first provoking his anger, then gradually succeeding in resuscitating the great martial arts master he once was from the time when he was fighting to make his club live, a place of learning, from the time when a mysterious student had bewitched him and enjoined to serve "the cause", a woman he had fallen madly in love with before hating her. Because she learns, in spite of herself, to take a critical look at the protected environment from which she comes, where one marries between cousins ​​to perpetuate the skin color of the dominant ones by rubbing as little as possible to the "others", that she knows, from then on, to see further than the end of her secure portal, and perhaps because, through her big brother Maxime, suffering from psychic troubles, she carries with her otherness from birth, Aude begins to make her place in this elsewhere. In the person of the old man and some "stranded" young people, she identifies another world, a new humanity and, with her, the path to make life a common cause.--Actes Sud.
