La Nuit des Rois | Philippe Lacôte
2020 | 1h35 | A Franco-Ivorian
Canadian-Senegalese production | Fiction, Drama

Ayoung man is sent to “La Maca”, a prison in the middle of the Ivorian forest ruled by its inmates. As tradition goes with the rising of the red moon, he is designated by the Boss to be the new “Roman” and must tell a story to the other prisoners. Learning what fate awaits him, he begins to narrate the mystical life of the legendary outlaw named “Zama King” and has no choice but to make his story last until dawn.

Dans la MACA d’Abidjan, l’une des prisons les plus surpeuplées d’Afrique de l’Ouest. Vieillissant et malade, Barbe Noire est un caïd de plus en plus contesté. Pour conserver son pouvoir, il renoue avec le rituel de “Roman”, qui consiste à obliger un prisonnier à raconter des histoires durant toute une nuit.
