The film centers on the director Sara Bouyain’s relationship with her grandmother, born in 1920 in what is now Burkina Faso, the offspring of a French colonial officer and a young African woman. By inquiring into the special fate of this crossbred minority to which she belongs - the requisitioning of the mothers, the abandoning of the children by the fathers, their mandatory placement in orphanages - the director confronts her own crossbreeding.
