Abderrahmane Sissako
2006 - France, Mali - Couleur - 118'
Melé is a singer in a bar, her husband Chaka is out of work, their marriage is on the rocks... In the courtyard of the house they share with other families, a courtroom has been set up.

Between pleadings and testimonies, life goes on in the courtyard. Chaka seems indifferent to Africa's unprecedented determination to reclaim its rights...
