Acting
In five parts, this documentary tells the story of the colonisation of the French Overseas Territories. Slave descendants, coloniser descendants, historians, admirals, rebellious writers and politicians recount a lasting past that keeps on igniting the economic and social relations of these territories even to this day.
The caretaker of a decaying fort serves as the narrator of this story. He is the only soldier who has remained at his post all these years. He tells us the tale of Eugène, a young prospector in search of his first green gold vein. Unfortunately, Eugène is ambushed by Raphaël and Gauvain, two escaped convicts on the run.
