Tout S'est Bien Passé plot

The world-famous mosque of Djenné is one of the most impressive examples of traditional African mud architecture. It has been a tradition for decades that the mosque is once again 'mudled' by the inhabitants of the Malian city during a festival. This is also necessary for conservation. Director Edwin Donders has city dwellers explain to his camera how this process works, what honor can be gained from it and sheds light on the preparations of a chosen boy who is given a leadership role during the mud ritual.
