The news spread fast in his neighbourhood with several parties interested in their cut of the money! We follow Ibrahima trying to get his money through the absurd and corrupt Senegalese bureaucracy in a bitterly ironic depiction of a society scarred by colonialism and plagued by corruption, greed, and poverty.
