La Nuit de la Vérité plot
In an imaginary West African country, after ten years of civil war, peace negotiations are finally underway between the government army of the Nayak, led by 'Le Président' (Adama Ouédraogo), and the Bonande rebels led by Colonel Theo. But not everyone is in favor of peace and the tension is palpable. The president's son was once horribly murdered and his mother is still not over her grief. The Shakespearean village idiot Tomoto also seems to be able to break through the fragile peace effort with violence and incitement at all times. The night of truth begins with a festive dinner.
