The documentary by Burkinabe director Salam Zampaligré draws a portrait of Drissa Touré, a taxi driver who decides to become a director after meeting Senegalese film legend Ousmane Sembène. The documentary looks back on the life of the self-taught director, who celebrated international success with the feature films LAADA (1991) and HARAMUYA (1995), only to suddenly disappear from the film scene.
