We are in Africa in a small village. In this village, man is a king ! He has complete power over women, thanks to a fetish, a whip, the gods sent him for generations. Each man of the village has to watch over the fetish at least for 10 years. Today it is the turn of Adama. Student in France, coming back to the village only for vacation, Adama doesn't want to know anything about the fetish, but he doesn't have any choice in the name of tradition. Adama falls into a trap the women had set him. They recover the fetish and burn it. The wrath of the gods is great. They turn Adama into a cock ! And Adama would have stayed a cock if Mariam, a young girl of the village, hadn't fall in love with him !!!
