Victor mertens, known to the Congolese as Mfumu Matensi, is the oldest white Jesuit missionary alive in the Congo today. He has been living there for over sixty years. He headed the Society of Jesus during the troubled time of the independence. Victor's life summarize the dreams and desillusions of the Belgian missionary enterprise. Today, he is an old powerless chief who has accepted to come back on his life and trajectory, during an intimate exchange with his great-nephew who has come to the Congo to meet him.
