The film portrays the hectic life of the “Great Z”, an engine driver for 20 years, laid off in 1995 by the National Railways of Burkina Faso following the privatization imposed by the World Bank. The film is a tragicomedy from Africa, where we will hear the peculiar language, and see the tall and fragile silhouette of a black, white-faced clown, both melancholy and mischievous, wandering the dusty streets of Ouagadougou and the greasy bars of Bobo-Dioulasso.
