Twist à Popenguine plot

Things are heated in a Senegalese village in the 1960s. The modernization brought about by France manifested itself in a merciless battle between the Kings, dressed in their pilot vests, and the Inséparables, who hope for the arrival of Salut les copains. The stakes: a record player. Poponguine's children dream of a future in Paris. A clash between different cultures with the metaphor of a French teacher, Mr Benoit.
